[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The black plastic fenders make them look cheap.[/quote] They’re plastic for a few reasons: 1) they offer a degree of “forgiveness” when you get up against a tree or a rock on a tight trail. A metal fender flare would be bent and scraped at the slightest rub, but the plastic ones are designed to flex somewhat and not suffer extensive damage 2) they’re designed to be easily replaced in the event of trail damage. 3) they’re often swapped-out for other types of aftermarket fenders, so putting a lot of detail finish into them is often wasted money. It’s a Jeep. You have to understand what it’s designed for to understand why it’s designed that way. Otherwise it’s akin to complaining that race cars don’t have air conditioning or interiors. [/quote] You can upgrade to steel bumpers if you custom order it. Some Jeep dealers allow custom orders. We upgraded ours.[/quote]
