Those are the only ones I've seen for the Dub, unless you made some yourself. There are always rumors amogst WJ owners that Bushwacker is coming out with some, but I don't know how much validity there is to that.

I doubt bushwacker will make any, there isnt a high demand. Iceland ones are strong, they took an XJ over top of a flare. pricey but worth it, we have round WJs, you aren't going to find a great looking flare unless you find someone who will do a one off fab job.

I have to disagree. I like the look of the fenders... I think I'll go this direction with my build. I have to thank you for finding them.

I have to do something with the fenders because the cops here in, salem oregon, are busting out measuring tapes left and right! Maybe they're looking to us jeep owners to cover the deficit by ticketing for over exposed tires...

I'm trying to go for a more aggressive look seeing as the wj hasn't ever really looked aggressive trying to go for the flat black incline winch bumper and flat black rear offroad bumper with tire holder and d rings and then the black fender flares with bolt on look see why I'm not trying to go for clean?

Bushwacker has said several times recently on their Facebook page that they are currently developing them for the WJ. They even posted pictures of their donor vehicle. They've been drawing in WJ owners by asking them to post up their own offroad pics and get them to take interest in their FB community. I'd say it's looking good that they will in fact produce them, but I would guess it's still a year at best from showing up on the market.

I totally get that. But I do like those iceland fenders. More now that I looked up the install that they have on their page. That guy did a great job and gave lots of good tips too!

I don't know where this guy is from or who made his flares, but it looks like something Bushwacker would come up with. I just happened across this guy's channel today. His WJ is bad to the bone.

I did actually see the survey they put on FB, but knowing Bushwacker, you'll probly have to sell your first-born to afford them. Guess it's about time to have a talk with the GF....
