Default TJ flares

its time to cut my fenders and i was thinking of putting tj flares on my 97 , i can get a set for free . i know theres other people who did this but i cant find really what im looking for with the search button ,

i know people are putting the rear tj ones on the fronts , but whats the main reason behind that and what are they putting in the rears to match the look ?
i would like to see some decent pics , of that and also what the front tj flares look like on the front of an xj , amd whats involved with puting these on , i know i could figure it out , but i wanna make sure im gonna like the look before i go thru everything to put them on

this is funny, Im actually going to an auto yard myself to try and get some, thats how I would go about it and I really want to tie in my blinkers to the front flares of the TJ, how they have the blinkers in them

My flares didn't come with the merker lights, I just filled it in. If it were up to me I would do without the fender flares.
I appologize for the large pic.

To put front tj flares on your xj and make it look decent you will need to cut off a lot of your fender.I was going to do this with mine but once I got the flares and saw what needed done I changed my mind.
