So you just shove the noodle up there? (haha, that sounds funny, and dont say 'thats what she said!'...my friend says it ALL the time)

so you trimmed in the front, did you also trim the rear? there's not much you can take out b4 it connects to another section of sheet metal that is part of the body. Thanks for the help...

Chilix99,



Hey, I finishing up my Jeep project. Long story short.....I was given a 98 Jeep Cherokee Classic (red) that was in pretty bad shape. I just have a few finishing touches, and I've been looking around for a set of red fender flares, entire front bumber, and red header panel.

From your post it looks like you won't be using your stock flares. I'd like to purchase them and any other parts I've listed above. Let me know.

I took off the front passenger flare and saw that the mounts were bolted into the fender, which will leave 4 or 5 holes showing. I'm just curious if anyone has taken the flares off and what it looks like now. Thanks.
