Wow Chris! You haven't had the TJ that long (when did you get it BTW??) and already you're cutting the sheetmetal. Looks good so far. Are you required to have side markers??

looks cool, but i think it was actually too flat. you are going to do a tube style flattie arent you?

not sure, possibly. I was going to do a flattie first with the flares. Then maybe migrate to tube fenders :D

i think it would be cool if the tubed fenders were tied into a roll cage, and put on there strong as hell so when you are sitting on your fender in the "wedge" :) it wont bend everything up. if you know what i mean:wave:
