just got some new flares from quadratech for my ride. remembering how much it cost for bushwaker cut outs on a 4 door cherokee i built, and todays economy most of us don't have much to spend. i found that bushwacker has "value" fender flares. they look like them feel like them, and made of though abs 1/8th inch thick plastic. only real difference is the price, for my '90 it was around $240, compared to the $450 for cut outs. the cool thing is you can still cut out the sheet metal for clearence! they are made in canada, and took less than a week to get to my home.

hope you guys who are building on a tight budget, and in need of new flares use this tip. happy wheeling

Nice! I always thought that flares were some of the most over priced pieces on the market. I mean some of them are over $600 a set!!

Those aren't bad!

got'em on, even in a blizzard they went on easy! 3 hours for removal of old flares and installing the new, though i ran out of daylight to get pics but will have some tomorrow.

just have to patch the holes left over on the rockers from the crackhead that owned before i did. plus i can trim a little more from the rear wheel well opening with these, thus giving me for room to articulate! not bad for $250
