Default Mod:Fender chop on a sahara?
I was wondering if anyone out there with a sahara did the fender chop mod? I have seen plenty of unpainted fender flares chopped, but I would like to see pics of painted flares before I go ahead and do the mod. Thanks

Did mine.

Here is my write up :

https://www.jk-forum.com/forums/jk-show-tell-33/sahara-fender-flare-chop-56801/

Sine the write up, I have lifted the Jeep with 35" tires, installed a small LED front turn signal, put the Front liner back on, trimmed the rear fenders, and bed-lined the rear wheel well instead of putting the rear liners back in.

Nope......yours look great Slag........you did a real clean job... cpray took off a bit much in the front if you ask me. Maybe somewhere between the two...???
