I want to get bushwackers for my XJ but they're so darn expensive, and I really want to get something a little more original, so I want to see what some of you guys did with your cut fenders and maybe get an idea going.

I screwed mine up and cut the unibody so now I gotta go weld it and all that fun crap, so since it is my DD and it's gonna look like crap with those seams, I really wanna find something cool to do with what I got now.

Post a picture pf your flare setup and some idea of what you did.

They are a great product. Check out the vid I posted there showing my LTB's catching them & snapping the whole flare, but nothing broke. I was impressed. I did that many times during the day. It was the maiden voyage, and I didn't have enough bumpstop.

Doug is real good to deal with too. Hope he makes a lot of them.
