Jeepin Jason · 02-15-2006, 12:39 PM

the link is good. try it again.

may need to copy/paste it for some reason. photobucket seems to be acting funny...

RuggedJeep · 02-15-2006, 12:44 PM

Interesting, Id like to see a full shot of the XJ from the side or the front just to get a better view.
Im gonna be doing something more along the lines of this.

Looks too much like an H3

HotSEXJ · 02-15-2006, 01:07 PM

I designed something JUST like that a while back!

Glad to see somebody actually made em!

mcamish01 · 02-15-2006, 02:05 PM

Like the fenders, but dang...could those round headlights make the front end any uglier??

YjK-St · 02-15-2006, 02:09 PM

I don't like it, if they were painted and the front end was left stock, I would like it better

xjj33p3r · 02-15-2006, 02:10 PM

Maybe they'll look better painted... but I really don't like them. I liked the line that the TJ flares give, but with just a tube there, it doesn't flow the same. Tube fenders for a cherokee need to follow the lines of the original wheel well to make it look more normal.

Man those are some tight radius'd bends! Impressive, although I don't really dig the front view.

Chris Lasater · 02-15-2006, 02:55 PM

put the turn signals behind the grill and drop the D-plate. Other than that looks cool.

covejeepsxj · 02-15-2006, 03:00 PM

I am not really digging them at all.

I'll be doing mine to mimic the same lines as the stock flare. Any idea on how the tube is supported to the unibody? That's the only thing keeping me from building these right now...

Those are some really sweet fenders... I should look into making a set, I've been hunting for some fender flares but unfortunately it is hard for me to find some since I have a newer XJ...

Jeepin Jason · 02-15-2006, 03:54 PM

Yeah, I've seen those. Pretty cool design, but I'm not really diggin' the prerunner bulge fender look at all though. Something all steel like that, but with the flatfender style flares of the first ones would be trick though.

avoiceoffcamera · 02-15-2006, 04:00 PM

I was basically thinking like stock look, but metal instead. I like wide Bushwacker flares, so I'll probably look for a wide set. I still want them to be stock style though, just wide.

some people have way too much time on their hands. But to each his own.

Those are cut and weld bends...I looked over some more pix.

But nice work none the less.

Static-XJ · 02-15-2006, 04:32 PM

IMO, flatfenders are for CJ/YJ/TJ.

fatwreck · 02-15-2006, 04:34 PM

I'd like to see someone do this and keep the front grill/headlights.....kinda like the second set posted, but much cleaner.

hes obviously trying to redeem his choice of an xj....with the round head lights and tubefenders and all

98XJDMB · 02-15-2006, 05:41 PM

i would like to see just the fenders on and no other body work accept maybe a bumper.
