Default Rubicon Rock Rail Trim
I know there is a thread on here already

https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/show...the+rock+rails

just wanted to throw some pictures up with it... If you have a 4 door with the rubicon rails, and put 35's with a 3" or less lift, the rail are gonna give the tires a finger's worth of room on paved roads, which leaves to rubbing on a hill climb... SO......

Before :






And of course AFTER

I did the same thing, I cut mine with an angle grinder with a cutting blade. It worked slick. Good luck.
