Has anyone seen a production model Sport or Sport S with the package ?. The description says "Molded IN Color" fender flares so are they color matched ? Wider ? Higher like the Rubicon ?

I've been doing inventory searches hoping one pops up in my area to see in person but nothing yet.

I think I have narrowed my decision down to a Sport S with Max Tow so I can get the 4:10 gears.

There just black not colored and there also not like the Rubicon flares. There are a couple pictures running around on threads. I'll see what I can dig up

Not sure what it’s worth, but here’s two close ups I took of an S with max tow. Saw a red S with the 250$ package and couldn’t really tell a difference between the fenders.

The Max Tow and Rubicon both have the "MM2" fenders in the order guide. If you look close you'll see a lip on them to accommodate that added 0.75" of axle width at each corner.

Oddly, though they share the same order code, the Rubicon version does sit higher for added tire clearance..

The order guide appears to be wrong concerning the fenders. The Sport with max tow package come with completely different fenders front and rear than any other JT. They have the extra lip and the the fronts are not highlines like the Rubicon. While the Rubicon comes with the wider axles it does not have the extra lip on the fenders. Honestly I can’t believe they make completely different parts for the max tow sports.

Thank you. Also been wondering since the sport max tow was one I thought alot about. So these look like heavy duty plastic flares, which might just be totally cool for my taste. Thanks!

Is the hood different for the max tow package or is the JT Sport hood different from a JL?

In the pictures you guys posted, the hood looks domed but not vented. I thought the JL Sport hood was flat.

I am not cool with plastic fenders on the JT. If I wanted the flat black plastic fenders I would have ordered them. Paying way to much for this to not have a say in the fenders. Come on Jeep, you can do better than this.

I think mine (Sport S) may be what you’re looking for. Unless you’re wanting the non color matched flares which I think look better on some body paint colors. I got mine at Clear Lake Jeep in Houston, TX area but it was the only one. Bayway Jeep here has A TON of Max Tow Sports and Sport S.

I have a sport S max tow

the fenders have the extra lip front and rear to account for the winder axel.

The rubi fenders are higher than the max tow, but just as wide. They just don't have the lip.

The molded in color just means black plastic. Which I personally love since its less painted surface to be effected by road debris. The painted fenders are nice but many folks end up putting film on the fronts to keep them from chipping with normal use.

The hood is standard across all sport and sport s models. The rubi / Mojave have a different hood. Id suggest getting a matt black hood decal. The design of the hood made the sun shoot directly into my eyes in the morning. The matte black hood decal took care of that issue.

JTMT is the way to go IMO.

So are they plastic, but painted body color? Sting-Grey body, will I have Sting-Grey fenders?
