Yes very nice looking for sure! Have you re-geared installed lockers yet, if not they will make a world of difference? They were single best upgrade I have done on mine so far as to performance on/off road with that tire.
Go places now in 2wd that before required 4wd with just the rear locked and the front is the icing on the cake, but you need a winch when they get you in trouble

Looks great. I'd like to get the flat Bushwacker flares too, but man they're spendy. Tell me, what happens with the original plastic fender liners with the flare install? Do they get modified or removed?

You can trim them to fit with the flat flares or you can just remove them. I removed them, it was easier and I don't think it looks bad without them

I don't like how much the Napier flares require to be cut out of the front fenders, but I also think the Bushwackers stick out just a bit too far. I'd like a set that were the width of Napier, but the arch of the Bushwackers. I'm not sure which to go with.

I decided on the Bushwackers. I have a snorkel on the way and the Napiers get in the way. Also, I got the Bushwackers online for $410 shipped. Still expensive for some pieces of plastic, but not much more than the Napiers, considering they'd add shipping to their $389 price tag.

jet.com
Just Google "bushwacker flat fender flares xj" and the jet.com offer comes up.
They were around $446, first time purchase gets 15% off up to $30. Using my credit card saved me an additional $6 for some reason. I've used jet before, so I know it's legit, but this time set up a "new" account using different email and delivery addresses so I got the "first time purchase" discount. Give it a shot.
