Default Liberty flares?

No clue how they are attatched to the liberty or if they are even a close sizing for an xj, just curious if anyone has thought of finding a way to mount them on an xj? they look a little bigger as far as how they come off the body. i was thinking of getting some bushwackers and then saw a liberty driving down the road and started thinking. . .

The Liberty front end tapers too much, using the front flairs on an XJ I think they would stick way out. Mounting them would be another issue, all the screw heads on say a Renegade (the KJ flairs that look like Bushwapers) are not screwed into anything they are just for looks..

i personally dont think that mounting them would be an issue if your willing to drill holes into your fender and into the flare and they would go on easy

i know the bolet holes are fakes and i knew the front ends tapered i just figured it would be easy to trim them to straighten them out. reason i ask is there is a local jy with a liberty that i can score the flares for cheap! just figured id get some opinions! and yea i really like bw ive always like them. if i can find a good deal on some id def buy them, but for now 400 could go to a front locker!
