I have my ARB compressor installed on the ABS tray on the driver side. Will I need to relocate it with these fenders?

Shouldn't have to. I have the ABS tray sitting there waiting for the Rancho compressor...

Not at all. That is exactly where ours is mounted. We provide replacement battery trays for both Passenger and Driver side. And the ARB compressor fits perfectly there.

Thanks for the quick responce. Are the high line fenders ready to ship? I like the look of the flat fender. Do you have any more photos of these installed?

Right now raw metal is shipping within a few days and powdercoated is shipping within 5 - 7 business days.

For more pics of the overline, check out the Overline thread...

And our website. MetalCloak Overline Flat Tube Fender We have lots of sets out there, but we are waiting for customers to start posting their pics with the Overline.

But after reading this thread, it might be a compromise I'm willing to make...

Are you guys going to bring a few sets to Moab in April? Will there be a sale special during the Safari?

I got my fenders installed a few days before Thanskgiving. I had an early batch of them and had a few problems, but after speaking with Doug at metalcloak we got everything worked out. They took a while to ship, but since they are the ONLY guys that offer powdercoating it was worth it. I have a TON of clearance now and love the aggressive looks. I'll get some more pictures up as soon as I get a chance.

Metalcloak has THE best customer service in the industry. I have dealt with many of the various jeep companies, but these guys (Doug especially) go above and beyond. I would not hesitate to order anything from these guys again. A+ service, and some sick products to boot.

0blcktj6, I haven't forgotten about you. Just didn't have the camera available in daylight hours today. SOMEONE didn't recharge the battery and by the time I found out, it was too dark (after I'd taken off the flare).

Anyway, that "someone" bought a little "mod" for me to put on the driver's side access panel. I'll take pics of both soon!

This is one of the engineers at Metalcloak. I apologize for your troubles. However, this is a great opportunity for us to improve. Would you mind if I gave you a call to discuss the problems you had.

QuickSilverCon...please understand you have one of the first 4 Overline Front Fenders we ever sold. New product lines don't always go perfectly but we try to correct any issues as fast as we learn of them.

We have 37" tires on a 3 1/2" RE long arm kit. You could go with larger tires (40s) with your 6" kit. But we like people to consider going lower with thier lifts. Thank you for the question.

We are definitely going to be at Moab, and make sure to come visit us! At this time we have not made any decisions about what discounts or sales, if any, we will be offering there.

Thank you!
