JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

I was so nervous to cut em too, but the thing that made it A LOT easier in my opinion(plus made is easier for me to take my reciprocating saw to my fenders) was having another set of hands. Yea, you can do it yourself - but the flares are gonna be bouncing and moving all over the place and once you mess up, you mess up..haha.

BEST OF ALL THO - THEY ARE FREE!

The fender chop is awesome. I chopped mine about a month ago and I love it. Im thinking about bedlining my flares so they can match my bumpers

You could do that or just get some Back to Black by Meguire's to restore the color and have them all match. That's what I did... a little cheaper and less "prep" required.
