I just felt it my duty to post the bad fitment for someone else that was looking into some fenders and does not share my same feeling. If you notice on Smittybilts website they do not show any good pictures of the rear three front photos but one on the rear.
Not sure if I posted it or not but I emailed pictures to a rep and R&D got back and said that the fitment would not perfect…. I guess when you find cheap stuff made in CHINA I knew what to expect.

The way I took that would be a yes. Are they all as bad as what mine were I don't Know. a 1/4" gap no big deal. a black or dark blue jeep probably no big deal but a white, silver, red etc your gonna see it. If you are thinking abot getting a set start a thread for pictures. i know someone else made a comment that is what they have. i am sure there are others that have them too.
Danny. I willt ake some better daylight ones and post if you start it.

But I sure like the looks of those you got. I may have to upgrade soon.

I had mine taped off and ready to do that but they are silver being a sahara and was not sure how it would look and could not find any pictures of this done to my style.
