Well, this is looking like a good idea

The front passenger fender flare blew off my XJ (not pictured) at highway speeds this weekend, and my loving boyfriend saw fit to scour the internet for the solution (pictured above) to my problems. I was going to cut n' roll the fenders once it warmed up anyway, but it still stings watching part of your car bail at 65mph and knock your side mirror against the door in the process with violence unexpected from a piece of plastic. Gotta say the decal is looking pretty reasonable right about now, both as a service to me and as a warning to fellow motorists.

Better stain those 2 x 4s so they don't rot.

this is what cut fenders look like (click expand)

I will need to put something on there to cover the width of the tire. Local cops don't really bother with this, but some state its an easy ticket

Yea, I'm going for something like this:

The new 31s are clearing fine on the road, but definitely need more room for offroad. Luckily I'm in Michigan, where even if we did have enough cops to pull people over, it'll take a lot more than lack of fender flares for them to care.
