Default Rusty's Fender Flares

So I have a set of Rusty's Offroad flares.. I got the front ones on and they look good.. but the back ones are a little tricky.. idk how to explain it with out good pictures but the back flare is a full "U" it goes from the bottom up and all the way back down again.. unlike the front where it cuts off above the stock front bumper.. like so..

so on the back.. it would have to go over the rear plastic bumper cap. idk if i should just take that cap off and put em on.. or just cut out of the cap with a die grinder or something.. what do you think.. heres my back end


I dont know if i wanna cut the flare and make it match just in case i get a new rear bumper and have to take the caps off...

just trim the caps. if you keep the factory bumper, your new flairs will fit and look good and if you get a new bumper it wont matter
