Thumbs up flares?

So i have been thinking about getting aftermarket flares for my 97 xj. All the flares i can find are cut outs and i really dont want to cut my fenders. Are there any aftermarket flares that you can get that arent cut outs?

There's the flat flares...much better looking IMO.

They do require a little cutting, though. There's many others also. Rusty's has flares, also check out Napier Precision. I'm not sure of any flares that bolt right up without trimming that aren't factory.

I second the flat flares, not sure if they will still require cutting but i do think they look a lot better

They do. Mostly from the sides of the wheel well though, not much from the top.

I think Napier flares are the best looking and cost efficient flares you can buy. If i get them I'm planning on painting them to match my factory grey trim
