Default Flares

Well worked on my flares today. I got them all cut out and folded but I broke the pinch weld so I've got to seal that tomorrow and here is a teaser of what it will look like with these small tires.

Default Todays Progress

Well I worked on patching the seams with Tiger Seal. I also sprayed the wheel wells and the outer edge with some duplicolor bedliner.

tomorrow I be doing the rockers and putting on my flares.

Just incase you are wondering why I did duplicolor instead or hurculiner way first price and second the ease of applying and touch up and third its what a professional and trusted painter recommended. and final is that its my Jeep and my choice.

Thanks man. I'm a little OCD with my jeep so I speed lots of time debating over what to buy and what to do to it.

Talking well just an update.

since I forgot my camera last night, I installed my bushwackers and I must say they look great. If I only had some bigger tires and wheels.

Thumbs up New accent paint.

Well today I finished masking off the rockers and sanding them to get ready for paint and well I couldn't wait another day so I went ahead and painted them with Dupli-color bed liner. let me know what ya think.
