Trying to find pictures of Cherokees without fender flares or the body side molding. 2000 XJ.

Leave it on, take it off?

 

There are plenty of pics on here with Jeeps with no side molding and fender flares.

I would personlly leave the side molding on and fender flares on. It all depends on your Jeeps purpose in life. If you are going to put oversized tires on it and have to trim the fenders, I would take them off. If it is a daily driver, I would leave them on. It may protect the paint job a little from road debris too.

 

 

protect the paint job its a jeep

 

Here's a few of mine, before and after I put bed liner on the sides..

 

No side molding, no flares, not trimmed.
