Cons | A real pain to install; especially the front flares due to the odd curves on the fender. |
Recommended | yes |
Comments: Although I really love these flares, the installation took WAY to long. The instruction are detailed enough it's just time consuming. Since drilling into the body is required you have to double a triple check before you commit to the hole. As much time as I took, I still miss-drilled one of the holes into a seam. This meant repositioning the entire flare and re-drilling the hole. The good thing about the install is that it is very easy to transfer the hole location measurements from one side of the Jeep to the other which really makes the second half of the installation a breeze.
Another issue is with the stainless hardware supplied with the kit. I realize SS is softer than many metals, but I had two of the screws strip when screwing them into the sheet metal. The threads basically peeled away.
Nonetheless, the effort is well worth it and there's no denying how good they look.
Side Note: I suggest trimming the rear sheet metal a little more aggressively than the instructions suggest.
