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.

Default Show your chopped fenders!

Sup everyone,
I just picked up my 09 4 door jk a few weeks ago for my daily driver and couldn't be more happy with it

but i have to be honest...
this forum is full of damaging, dangerous, deleterious, detrimental, hurtful, injurious, ruinous, unhealthy, and any other words that are a synonym of bad that dictionary.com suggests...

how can i possibly save any money at all when you guys fill my mind with thoughts of what i can turn my jeep into?? u guys have such nice jeeps, while im still stock... these car tires are killing me!!

well its time i start looking into what i want my jeep to become. just off the top of my head id like to run 35s with whatever size lift id need to not ever have to worry about any kind of rubbing.

This finally leads me to the actual point of the post. I'm thinking about chopping my fenders once i buy new wheels and tires. I've searched the forum for a "show us your chopped fenders thread" but i haven't found anything that quite fits the bill, just a handful of people posting their chopped fenders in separate threads.

So unless I'm wrong, and there is a chopped fenders thread, throw up some pictures! lets see what you guys have done!

Thank you sir! gotta admit tho, im just hoping im not being to hasty in doing this mod just to do something to the jeep

i see you have the Zenon narrow flares, how do you like them? if you had to do it over again would u have bought the zenons or just chopped your fenders? cuz i gotta say... i like the zenons!

Do over, nah, like my zenons. I can set stuff like wrenches and cups on it and they don't slide off.

Travis, i really like the way you trimmed your fenders!
those look sick. when you say a day do u mean like an 8 hr work day?
did you use a dremil tool or a saw? i think id be worried about cutting too much with a dremil, plus im a glutton for punishment so i'd use a saw

i think what i like most about this mod is that you can cut them to a style you like, with your own personal touch instead of having the exact same fenders as everyone else.

i really like what sm_rubi did on his fender chop.

but i just like seeing different cuts different people have done.
