The best way is to make a jig and bend with heat. The Harbor Freight bender is hard to get two pieces bent the same.

That's one of the reasons I can't figure out how to make my flares. There's just no economical solution. A real tube bender costs a bunch of money.

Nice they look good. What wheels did you have before? And yeah trex I like the look, ive also seen people run 4 rear flares, but I think the tj fronts make it look so mean. I can see that and some angry headlights in my future
