Talking News - new Bushwacker JK fenders

I heard from Bushwacker they just released new Fender Flares for 4dr JK without the Torx bolt-on holes (ala Sahara style)........to quote "they should be arriving to the retailers very soon".

They're apparently the painted ones on the green w/red flames (hmmmm) JK on rear cover of Quadratec's 2007 summer edition.

I figured the best way to find the first stockist would be to post here.....not at Quadratec yet...

I'm looking at the back cover pic you are talking about (Skyjacker JK)... Are those not the stock Sahara flares? I just looked out the window at my 2 door X and they look like they are the same width.

I called Skyjacker a while ago asking them about that JK and its painted fenders, they said Bushwacker gave/made them a prototype set, so contacted Bushwacker and today received an email of the imminent release....

I'll be in line for a set.

Are they wider than the stock sahara flares or just an aftermarket version that will be less expensive than the mopar parts?
