This is exactly the style I want but I am a little uneasy about how tough these are offroad

I'm using the Rustys ones that are the most flexible. Have had them in the forest quite a bit up against trees and a few rocks not broken or torn off so far.

The best part was I found them on CL new in the box for $150 (for a 4 dr) the guy had sold his XJ before he ever got them installed.

You forgt NOTCH flares... Very good clearance....requires some weldig and such if your capable of so... But the torture tests they do prove you won't destroy them... I saving for a set but for now I just got the pacer flexy flares to keep the mud off the windshield

I think that's the route I'm going to go is the Napier flares now this might sound stupid but I have never installed these before is there anything I need to make sure of before I buy these? How they bolt up? What hardware? I'm assuming anything stainless steel and I also noticed rope trim in other flare kits will I need this?
