Hurricane Fender Flares by Rugged Ridge
Does anyone have any experience with them? Would I be better off getting the bushwhacker flat flares and putting the extra cash to accessories to my AEV rear bumper?( splash guards, fuel caddy, etc. )

They look to be about the same price... Get whichever one you like the most.

Those are new and I'm sure very few are running them at this point. I can't speak for those but I have the rugged ridge flat fender flares on my rig. I have been running them for the past 3 years or so. They are good flares, but if you do any type of close quarters wheeling (trees and creek beds with close side walls) they will break really easily. I have been through 3 sets so far and all have been replaced under warranty, but now I'm out of that. I will upgrade to metal flares once I break the pair I have again, but long story short, those flares look much more solid and better quality. I don't think you will have an issue with them but I can tell you that they will not bed and flex like bushwhacker or xenon's flares. The material they use is ridged and is supposed to be able to bend and take hits, but it spider cracks every time. Hope this helps!
