Aftermarket fender flares?

Mar 01, 2008 12 Replies

Anyone have any recomendation for fender flares, my daughter needs some for her YJ, not too expensive, but a freind bought some a couple months ago, looked great, went on nice, good fit, first time out he hit a tree and a



2"x4" chunk came out of flare.

Hey Greg, All of the guys in our club that I've spoken to say that the factory flares are the best. Three of them told me that they'd crunched theirs and they popped right back out.

M'salf, I've been looking at these by Bushwhacker:

had a close up look at a set like these, don't know the brand name though. They were significantly more ridgid than the factory flares I have now. Kate

Thanks Kate, but she has a ford 9" in the back, 3" wider then stock, plus

12" tires so she needs 6"+ flares.

"Wider than stock", "more rigid than..." You guys are making me feel old. We would never have gotten away with stuff like this, back in the nineteenth century when I was learning to read and write in that one room school house. An error like that brought a ruler across the knuckles, and quick too. No need to take offense, just trying to maintain the purity of the language.

Six inch flares on a YJ is going to look like a dual wheel three quarter ton pickup. Good luck in your search. Factory flares are the best, but they don't come in 6" to my knowledge. Maybe someone is parting out a Renegade close by.

I made her fiberglass ones a few years ago, 6", jeep looks great, but fiberglass doesn't stand up to trees. And if you are worried about grammer, you shouldn't be reading the internet.

I worry about spelling too. "Grammar", and most literate people agree that "Internet" should be capitalized.

Now that's a keeper!

Snobs is OK, it's idiots I can't stand. "Ridgid" is the name of a line of plumbing tools. "Wider then" just doesn't make sense. Well maybe, "I was wider then, but I went on a diet." That could work. If you went people to take you seriously then spell write and learn where the shift key is at.

Cheers,

I "went" people to take me seriously, to a point. Other than that I'd rather entertain them.

The internet is a place where we should be able to relax and not worry too much about who is grading our papers.

There is the Internet and there are internets. The lowercase word internet(s) can be used for small, possibly isolated, networks which are interconnected using the internet protocol. They may or may not be connected to the world-wide Internet. A good example would be banks who network their automated teller machines to other bank networks. Another would be some university research networks.

The Internet with the capital I is the world-wide network of networks of which there is only one.

That's the one I'm talking about. Somebody said something about grading papers. Better leave it alone or we'll be downgraded for style and ideology. :)

I can think of better criteria for taking people seriously. Granted, I wouldn't be hiring them as programmers, etc. As for the caps key, "wottahell archie, there's a dance in the old dame yet"
