Default Got Mud Flaps?

I was thinking about getting/installing some mud flaps, while I don't mind getting the XJ dirty I don't like the hours of cleaning afterwards...

So who has mud flaps?
where did you get them?
did you make them?
any clearance issues?

Mud flaps, what are those?

I'd like to see some pictures if you have, thanks!

I dont like mudflaps on an xj..hell I dont like em on anything... I do believe there are a few people that run em but I dont have any pictures to sell..I think its required to have them in some states...just doesnt "fit" an xj in my opinion.

Yeah I'm not too sure if I want to put them on... Hopefully a few pictures will help me decide and see if they actually keep the sides cleaner.
Luckily SC has no such rules about flaps

If you want them to keep mud off the sides they just won't work. If you want them so stones don't chip the crap out of your rockers and quarter panels and start a rust problem, then they are a good idea. I do agree though that they just don't suit the look of a Cherokee.

Mine came with stock MOPAR ones when I bought it. They were immediately taken off. It kept the rocks from tossing up and chipping my paint (I DO take care of my paint) but as far as mud protection there was a little bit. It would toss it up a little farther back on the car is all. Now I need to install my AJ's sliders...
