ECOTRIC Fender Flares w/LED Side Maker Compatible with 2007-2018 Jeep JK Wrangler 2/4 Door Model Unlimited Rubicon Unlimited, Pocket-Riveted Style Smooth Matte Black Wheel Flares Cover 4Pcs

So first off, these were installed on a 98 Cherokee classic. The package was shipped quickly and was packaged perfectly. The bolt bags were zip tied to the rubber packaging materials which is a great idea because if the box is damaged in shipping the bolts will likely be lost in transit (I've had this happen previously on other large items). They are by no means designed to fit this vehicle. We did a lot of backyard modifications to make them work. I chose these ones for the JK wrangler because of the angle of the curves on the rear wells. With cut fenders its impossible to bolt on the ones that are marketed for and XJ. We had to slit and bend the driver side and weld it in place to allow for the gas door to still open. We had planned to slit and bend both of the rear flares to make them level and not be sloped as seen in the pictures. The problem with that is that since we have cut fenders and 35" tires, the flares would have to stick down in the wheel-Well and would then rub the tires when flexed. There also wouldn't be enough room to bolt them for stability and they would have to be welded on. The front flares fit amazing except for one spot (where the XJ fender trim is). We used flat steel and clamps to reshape the body metal so the flares could sit flush. The (plastic) body trim had to be cut and trimmed to line up and allow the fender flares to bolt flush. Once installed these are the exact same width as the side mirrors when in driving position. This is perfect for us since we have 35" x 12.5 " tires and we installed these to keep the mud from slinging to the windshield. The only problem is that we slide through narrow trails and sometimes beat the mirrors off the trees. I am expecting to bend these at some point and I will post updated pictures after we bang them off a few trees. Took it out tonight and finally got to test them and the results were great. I can now leave my windows down while banging off the Rev limiter in the mud (forward and reverse). Very happy with the price and quality. (You can laugh at the angle of the rear flares because they look kind of goofy, but that was the best solution for what we needed.)

I put these on my JK and they look great. Especially at this price point. They have the classic square flat fender look and the rivet pockets make them unique. Ignore all of the hardware! Get 1/4 inch plastic push rivets or get the factory JK T shaped fender clips. They install in minutes with the push rivets. Use two of the M4 10 mm bolts and small flat washer for the u-nut on the front fender. I used gorilla tape to secure the wiring to the inside of the front fender. Simple as that. Only reason for four stars is that the rear fenders are not DOT compliant with the amber lights. I am going to remove them and cover the holes with flat red reflectors using double sided tape.

They look like a rugged ridge knock offs but honestly they are not a bad option for the price. Overall if you have installed fender flares before then youll get through this fairly easily. They are very similar to the hurricane style flares so if you follow that install it will get you through the bulk of it. Worst case watch some youtube, may or may not of put a video up with a bare basic follow along of how I did it. Look wise I really like em just got to see how they hold yup.FYI all the holes lined up on our 11" jku, no additional hardware needed or drilling.

I know, you get what you pay for. I should've spent a bit more to get good ones.The good:It looks, from a distance, pretty slickThe bads:No instruction sheet.All the bolts, parts, and extras are all just bundled together.The plastic itself is done very poorly. Where defects happened, they just threw a glob of plastic on it and called it a day. Lots of warps. Lots of badly patched cracks.Overall, one of my worst jeep purchases, and I should have known better.

Like others have said, you get what you pay for. At first I didn't think these were going to fit at all but they are flimsy enough to bend to your will. After watching a video on how to install another brand I thought I had a pretty good idea of what to expect but that only helped with how to remove the stock flares. I'd really like to see someone install these with the hardware provided because it made no sense at all. The only correct screws and quantity were the ones for holding the LED lights in place. Some of the rest was useful and a lot of it was discarded. First of all, for the rear flares you're going to need to install threaded rivet nuts in M6 if you want to use some of the provided hardware so don't even start the job without a couple dozen of these and the installation tool. In addition to that I used 1/4" pop rivets to reinstall the trimmed rear fender liners. I'm a contractor and hobby fabricator so was lucky enough to have these on hand or the Jeep would still be sitting waiting for ordered tools and hardware. It also helps to have some knowledge of DC electrical to hard wire the lighting because the plugs it comes with are worthless. You have to either solder this into your existing wiring or use solderless connectors. After establishing the front flare would work I tried a rear one, all the while thinking this kit would be returned but once it was found they both would fit I went ahead with a full installation, which for me included cutting the fender liners (use a jig saw with a metal cutting blade) for reinstallation. The first front and first rear seemed to take forever but tricks learned in the process made the second front and rear go on in 1/4 the time. All in all this install took me 5-6 hours. I didn't take the tires off for access but some parts of the job would have been easier if I had, especially dealing the the fender liners, and I cut off one of the stock front flare supports only to find this was unnecessary. I don't know what's in the more expensive kits but judging from the complexity of the stock flares I can understand why some are close to $400. This is a bare bones budget kit that you'll need to supply hardware and a lot of creativity and ingenuity to install but all said and done it works and looks good. If you want a complete bolt-on plug and play kit this is not for you. LEDs are bright but I agree with others the rear lights should be red.
