I was thinking of just trimming them and using some sort of molding to cover up the edges. I may buy some bushwhackers down the road but most definitely not using the stock fenders.

How much do you want cut out? If it ends up past pinch seam, may be better and cheaper to roll.
I can do it for you, won't be until the end of October though...

I'm completely up for suggestions. I'd like to put 33's on for more ground clearance. End of October works well so I can save some dough. How much, roughly am I looking at.

If I roll them, about $30 a fender. If you want to cut and weld figure on $50 a fender. I can mount my 33's on my Cherokee and get a better idea this weekend for you.

Added pic to last post so you can get a better idea on the rolling method. I rolled 1 1/2" up on my ZJ

That sucks, If I would have thought about it I had a jump pack in my jeep, we could have tested it before you pulled it

How much lift are you on? If you could let me know. I might opt for the rolling if it will fit the 33's.

I am on 3.5" on my ZJ, I can clear 32's with 3" on my Cherokee with minor rub.

Sitting at 3" & using 31s you wont have to trim your fenders but you will need to find the right backspacing tires (4.5)
if your going to stay at 3" and want 33s you'll have to trim for sure

they dont let anything in that can test - if they catch you with it/catch you testing they generally charge double the amount

and they dont do refunds - which is stupid to me

which is why i like going to va beach, va pick-n-pull
30day warranty on all parts you pull and you can pay extra for up to 1 year warranty and their prices are about the same and their lots are cleaner, level and they keep inventory of exactly whats on the lot so you dont waster your time going out there if they dont have what you need

B&H doesn't have warranties, but they are pretty good about letting you check stuff out. And the yard is clean and organized. + you can jack up the vehicle with your own jacks...
