I have to admit my expectations were not high here, was not familiar with Z8 (Front & Rear Fender extensions) and kinda expected a bust, but the price was right so I rolled the dice. I was pleasantly surprised, seems to be a good quality plastic that matches the Jeeps', they fit strong and look great with the little bit of poke I have.

There will be a couple of holes you don't use on the front ones, and I strongly recommend a plastic rivet gun and a drill to carefully drill out the centers of the old rivets

I’m glad someone came out with these. A lot of us did the Mopar XR set but it required some finagling and rears weren’t designed for the JT so you ordered two sets of fronts and I think I paid around $150, so this is kind of a steal at $100 shipped to your door and designed for your rig regardless of trim.

The ones I purchased used the removeable factory insert rivets. I broke one or two popping them out and it came with spares: https://a.co/d/dgkwsuJ

There is a version for Rubicon and Mojave.

What's this? Is this a photoshop job? A new model I've never seen? A non-US version?
