Fairly good quality. Look amazing.
So first off, these were installed on a 98 Cherokee classic. The package was shipped quickly and was packaged perfectly. The bolt bags were zip tied to the rubber packaging materials which is a great idea because if the box is damaged in shipping the bolts will likely be lost in transit (I've had this happen previously on other large items). They are by no means designed to fit this vehicle. We did a lot of backyard modifications to make them work. I chose these ones for the JK wrangler because of the angle of the curves on the rear wells. With cut fenders its impossible to bolt on the ones that are marketed for and XJ. We had to slit and bend the driver side and weld it in place to allow for the gas door to still open. We had planned to slit and bend both of the rear flares to make them level and not be sloped as seen in the pictures. The problem with that is that since we have cut fenders and 35" tires, the flares would have to stick down in the wheel-Well and would then rub the tires when flexed. There also wouldn't be enough room to bolt them for stability and they would have to be welded on. The front flares fit amazing except for one spot (where the XJ fender trim is). We used flat steel and clamps to reshape the body metal so the flares could sit flush. The (plastic) body trim had to be cut and trimmed to line up and allow the fender flares to bolt flush. Once installed these are the exact same width as the side mirrors when in driving position. This is perfect for us since we have 35" x 12.5 " tires and we installed these to keep the mud from slinging to the windshield. The only problem is that we slide through narrow trails and sometimes beat the mirrors off the trees. I am expecting to bend these at some point and I will post updated pictures after we bang them off a few trees. Took it out tonight and finally got to test them and the results were great. I can now leave my windows down while banging off the Rev limiter in the mud (forward and reverse). Very happy with the price and quality. (You can laugh at the angle of the rear flares because they look kind of goofy, but that was the best solution for what we needed.)

Ignore all the mounting hardware.
I put these on my JK and they look great. Especially at this price point. They have the classic square flat fender look and the rivet pockets make them unique. Ignore all of the hardware! Get 1/4 inch plastic push rivets or get the factory JK T shaped fender clips. They install in minutes with the push rivets. Use two of the M4 10 mm bolts and small flat washer for the u-nut on the front fender. I used gorilla tape to secure the wiring to the inside of the front fender. Simple as that. Only reason for four stars is that the rear fenders are not DOT compliant with the amber lights. I am going to remove them and cover the holes with flat red reflectors using double sided tape.

No instructions but if you use common sence youll get through it.
They look like a rugged ridge knock offs but honestly they are not a bad option for the price. Overall if you have installed fender flares before then youll get through this fairly easily. They are very similar to the hurricane style flares so if you follow that install it will get you through the bulk of it. Worst case watch some youtube, may or may not of put a video up with a bare basic follow along of how I did it. Look wise I really like em just got to see how they hold yup.FYI all the holes lined up on our 11" jku, no additional hardware needed or drilling.

You get what you pay for
I know, you get what you pay for. I should've spent a bit more to get good ones.The good:It looks, from a distance, pretty slickThe bads:No instruction sheet.All the bolts, parts, and extras are all just bundled together.The plastic itself is done very poorly. Where defects happened, they just threw a glob of plastic on it and called it a day. Lots of warps. Lots of badly patched cracks.Overall, one of my worst jeep purchases, and I should have known better.

Great price but you make up for it with hardware.
The fit is OK for the price. The biggest issue is the hardware. The bolts are OK for front but the rear plastic push pins and screws and totally worthless. I found this trick and it made a huge difference.Get a pack like a 50pack of the push pins used in the grills. They commonly come with fender hardware kits. Can be bought separately though. Huge time saver and snug/don't break easily.I kept and trimmed the oem inner liners and I'm glad I did.

No instructions
I love the quality and price. But no instructions. This its the second product that I bought online made in China but designed in the USA. No instructions doesn’t help. Before I give you medicine in the hospital I give you the written data, risks, and when to take it (instructions). You’d be mad if I didn’t follow through. You’re making something good ugly

Poorly fabricated
These fender flares are ok for the price, but not very carefully crafted. They would be fine for an inexpensive option on a trail rig that fit and finish isn’t too important, but I wouldn’t recommend them for anything you want to look a little nicer. The outer edging has gaps between it and the flat part and the radius on the flats wasn’t uniform either.

Love these fenders!
I was super excited to get my new fenders for my new Jeep! After I put them on I realized a reflector was missing. Even though it took me a few weeks before putting them on an noticing the missing reflector, I reached out to the seller to let them know. I was very pleased at how quickly they responded and was very courteous and understanding. They made it right by sending me new ones and very quickly! I am loving my new fenders on my jeep! Would definitely purchase again if anything were to happen to them.
