Either way it looks good. That is where I plan to cut mine for 35" tires. Just making sure that it will look that way. I think it would look good with the front fenders done, but it also may look to conformed. The only reason would be to make it uniformed. But now that I think about it just rock what your rocking right now.
Gooooooood lookin' xj no matter what! When you did the back did you just section it and roll it under to where the flare was?

I rolled it under and covered it with clear RTV silicone and then after a few days I spayed the inner fenders and the fold with Rubberized undercoating.

I like the look of the black body armor quaters, but since i can't afford them right now, I made it look like a had them. LOL. I also didnt want to use any kind of body molding trim on the rear, the paint does crack a bit when you cut and fold, hopefully no rust this way.

I have't thought about doing the exterior, but I did plan on doing the interior. My reason because I hate the carpet. Especially on as many beach runs as I go. PITA vacuuming (sp?)

xjjeepthing that is one nice rig. I like it and the bedliner looks awesome too. Only thing it needs is a relocation to my yard.

So, i took my rear bumper caps off to do the whole bedline thing and it appears that the tabs that hold them too the body are riveted to the body. Is this true? how did you deal with them. I was thinking they would need to be drilled out and then filled with bondo before I bedline. Is this correct??

Yep, I just drilled the rivets of out of mine and left it. Really can't notice. I plan to eventually do some sort of body armor there or cut and fold it.
