Default POLL: Stock Fenders or Xenon Narrow Flat Fenders w/35's

I can't thank everyone enough for voting and providing feedback. I made a decision based on my 11 yr old daughters comment "it looks more awesome this way", she's my lil Jeep Girl. Thanks again, if I knew how to close a poll I would but don't so be it.

I'd like some feedback on which looks better, Stock Fenders or the Xenon narrow Flat-Fenders with 35s. I'm struggling with which I like best

These tires are 2 weeks old and the Jeep looked good with the 4.5" of lift and these tires and with the flat fenders I feel like it needs 37s (which is out of the question right now because I'm saving for either Poison beadlocks or AEV Pintler beadlocks before I change tires, which would absolutely require re-gearing. 37s are another $70-80 bucks more than 35s. I realize the flatties allow for more articulation but I don't think they'd touch with the stockers now anyway.

4.5" lift w/35s & stock fenders


4.5" lift w/35s & flat fenders

definitely the stock fenders

the flatties give it waaay to much lift look

the stock flares look better

if anything id take out the 2 inch body lift and leave the xenons on

Stock all the way. The flats just show too much of the wheel well .

I like the "meatier/beefier" (QUIT LAUGHING) look of the stocks.

The flats make it look like a "flying nun" and I don't like all the wheel well showing.

But you already know my opinion
hey sweetheart you can take the bus home after work

thanks for the feedback, but they are night and day texture wise, stockers are rough and flatties are smooth as Shakira's a** and it looks funky that way...kinda like "oh crap I forgot to do the backs"...

ehhh...I don't know man, thought about the bedliner coating, but it's the front that I'm struggling with over the back....might have to throw a front on this evening just to make a decision.
