When I do my tube flares i'm gonna order the front fender armor and rear fender armor that also incorporates tail light boxes from Jeeptubes. The front armor for the pair is $160.00 and the rear armor with taillight boxes for the pair is $295.00 which I will use as the base for the tube flares. Here's the link for the armor.

And then i'll order the prebent Tube flares from them also. The Pair of fronts are $100.00 and the Pair of Rears are also $100.00 then all I got to do is cut them to length I want notch them and weld them to the fender armor and then make the skins for them. Here's the link for the prebent tubes.

not yet im gona have to make a diffrent type of brace then i planed since the fenders are perrty thin im thinkin about welding a 1 and 5/8 tube to the inner fender then makin a 2x2 1/4 inch square plate for the end on the fender and drillin it so i can run bolts threw the armor and plate so its all tied together i think it would make it alot stronger
