I just bought a set of these for my 2008 JK 2dr. Yours look very good.
Any tricks I need to know for the installation?

Lots of good install videos out there. Pretty straightforward. Just have to splice the side marker wiring into the new side markers. Even that is pretty simple.

yep youtube bushwacker fender install. Way easier than the instructions. For the wiring make sure they work first. I put white to white and black to black apparently depending on the jeep they can be reversed lol. That's my tip.

but im not a fan of the look from the front view on any of the tapered fenders up front nor the price . The factory fenders look good to me believe it or not , I guess its preferance
If i were to spend that much on fenders id want metal not plastic . I guess everyone has a different view id prob go poision spyder if any change but i cant see changing them and going plastic again

definitely up to preference. I love the look and happy with the outcome. .....had a 2008 jku a long time ago. So have learned from what other people have done and what I did in the past. Also how I want this jeep to look like. My last one I did a OME HD lift....as well as control arms....drive shafts....gussets...trackbars.....bumper rear tire carrier...evap relocation....brake line extensions even regeared it to 5.13s so many thingsI am taking it easy this time. Just like the look and option of doing a little offroad.

I had a lot of my own visions as well , usually in the end i think we all get them to where we want them, or close enough for what are use is
i first bought a 2011 sport and found out as i went that my pick of a jeep sport was bought on impulse and finances at the time .I wasnt aware of gearing on it being 3.21 would hinder it with bigger tires and performance . I also bought it with out a/c lol Thinking ahh the top will be off anyway
not concidering days that rained and was hot. it was like a oven . After figuring costs to upgrade and time i decided to trade it for a rubicon 2 door. Not that sports arnt good , Just in my position it was better to have a different platform before upgrades . To be honest i found driving it stock pretty much suited my needs with just simple mods really . Not knocking the fenders at all . Ieven thought of those same ones. spent endless nights scanning other jeeps and different fender flairs bumpers etc , Ended up leaving the stock ones seeing they hold up pretty good
besides if you dont like something its easy enough to change it and try again. I remember buying a popular brand of rocker gards and i just didnt like the look at all when i saw them bolted on , So i took em off ,repacked and shipped back. Bottom line is you gotta love the look yourself no matter what anyone else says ! Thats what keeps jeeps cool no matter what you do to them . Thanks for sharing your build

There's a much cheaper option...I bought these because my DV8 flares were complete crap...powdercoat started peeling after 2 months and I eventually decided since I live at the beach, maybe plastic was the way to go.

Reviews weren't great for these, being a little thin and especially the fit of the rear flares and a hole nor lining up. What is your honest review on these?

Thanks

They went on fine as far as fit-up. They aren't real thick, and I didn't love the bracket design, but they seem pretty rigid once installed and look great. Honestly, for the price I went into it with the attitude that I can always get the DV8s blasted and coated by a proper powdercoat shop if need be but so far I don't see a reason to.
