Finally got my Smittybilt XRC fenders......
I installed the front yesterday(about 4.5 hours) and am installing the rears today. I bought my JK in April and after installing two other set of fenders (can be seen on my profile pics) The first set looked good in pictures but turned out to feel cheep and flimsy. The second set was way better, felt solid but couldn't take a bump very well. After installing the XRC fenders I stood in awe of the strength, fit and finish and overall quality. I will post pics of the rear after they are on....

Finally Done...
All said and done, to do both the front and the rear took me about 12-13 hours... (in my driveway) I would not try to do these again by myself. Four hands would have made it go a lot faster...That being said. I am 100% satisfied with these, solid as a rock.

To the OP:
The fender are a love/hate as far as looks and function and classic Jeep lines.
The call is all yours!

I put them on more a tribute to the birth of the Jeep in 1941.
