Do these have any type of coating to prevent corrosion? If not what would you recommend for uncoated installation? Also where would you recommend rock lights be mounted assuming NV inner/outers?
Thanks for asking Matt! I left these bare with the intention of pulling them off to do a paint match later after the video was recorded. The natural aluminum look has been growing on me however, since I've got aluminum corner armor, wheels, rear bumper and a silver/clear zinc front bumper that it all kind of ties into visually. What I've used before is called Sharkhide Metal Protectant. It's a clear coat that was developed for aluminum boat hulls in marine environments, and it does a great job of preventing the white oxidation you see if you leave the aluminum completely raw/bare.
You guys going to do the rear JT flares at some point. That’s the only real stopper for me fronts are awesome but if I can’t get rear flares there is no point.
@@a1racer441 been busy prepping 3 JLs to go to invasion.... They ship Monday and the shop JT gets the bay Tuesday to install the first set. After that 😉
@@NextVentureMotorsports awesome can't wait to see it. I'm just in the process of doing my lift have not even got tires and wheels yet. but I really like the 3-inch chop bumper and the fenders. you guys doing the inners for the rear to?
If you fast forward to 3 minutes and 30 seconds, there is an overlay showing the factory fenders vs these front fender flares. They're about 5/8" narrower at the rear/top arch of the flare, just a touch wider at the very trailing edge (by the rock slider/front door) and about 3.5" narrower at the very leading edge where the LED is. This gives you ample coverage to the body/door (similar to factory) and also pulls the front corner in tighter to help keep the fender out of the rocks/obstacles.
I just don't like excessive ( past 1 inch ) tire poke or after market fender flares that do not cover the tires on a Jeep......any Jeep...... They are fine on Rock Crawlers...and that's where it ends with me....... Sorry..... I even run a 37- 11.50 .......and they are perfect...
@@mattbrew11 I know.... every body's different... Have you ever made a flare that is OEM dimensions like that.....close to factory look???? Now , that I would buy....for all 3 of my Jeeps......JLs...and 1 JT... wife's doesn't count...
Everybody has different preferences, and with 50 different sets of rules in the states, sometimes it just comes down to that. We're lucky to be in Western Colorado/ Southern Utah most of the time 😅

Looking good & made in USA!
Made in house in the USA is the best way we've found 🤙

Overall, how much narrower are these over factory flares
