okay, so i got 31" tires on my cherokee and i have no lift. they fit fine on the road but when i got muddin or trail riding they bump up and hit the fenders/wheel wells. SOOOOO i took my front fender flares off! and this made ALOTT more room!
I was just wondering if anybody has any homebrew ideas or any products i can buy to cover the holes or make it look...nicer. I dont want new fender flares, i just want to cover the holes to make it look pretty!
ay suggestions and/or pictures would be greatly appriciated!!!!

Rule of thumb is you can always do more, but you can't undo anything. Start small, see what you think, make necessary changes. The cut and fold method is best. BUT!! Be wary of the rear fenders! There is a pinch weld just inside the fender well. Prob not even a 1/2 inch. Don't cut that unless you want to deal with sealing it up. And as far as I know that is a structural area of the jeep and cutting it can potentially compromise said structural integrity.. But I'm not 100 percent on that... But I am sure that somebody can clarify.
Heres mine.. I literally just cut about a half an inch it was just a test run because like I said you can always take more!
