Fender Flare Poll

[jdougn]

A limited batch of the fender flares are being run on new tooling & molds. These are probably going to turn out real well. If so, then the fender flares will go into regular production. There should be a better answer within a couple weeks. Thanks for the interest!

I'll be interested once the quality gets really good, and it's easy to order. They look sweet.

They're good already. I bought prototypes and haven't seen any flaws that Doug was worried about. Good product, IMHO.

Disclosure: I just want to address those who may be skeptical about my comments. I AM JUST A BUYER.

I have no vested interest here. (Wish I had invested awhile ago).

Anyway, my input is just to inform others of my satisfaction with these, nothing more.

 

[srmitchell]

Right on. Cool.

They look sweet.

 

[fishjeep]

- Extra sets were made. A few sets are available for sale. (PM me for details)
- These flares should be available in limited quantities on a regular basis real soon.
- Working on getting a website set up to provide information, specifications, picts/video, destruction tests, new products, and store front.

Thanks,
Doug

Napier Precision Products - V2 Fender Flares

This is exciting! The website featuring the V2 heavy duty fender flares for the Jeep Cherokee XJ has launched!!

Some of you on already own a set of these flares! A lot of you have followed the development and offered ideas for these fender flares for the 4 door Jeep Cherokee XJ 96-2006.
See the last few pages for reviews, feedback, and a video link on page 17 by zr2toxj on how awesome and heavy duty these fender flares are!!


Here's what we did to make them tougher and better:

• Almost TWICE AS THICK as other products. Makes them super tough. I can park my Jeep on them!
• Extend out around 3.25". Lines up great with most 10.5" - 12.5" wide tire setups. Some products extend out 5" which is a couple inches past most tire/wheel setups. Since the V2 Fender flare extends out around 3.25" it is also less likely to smash into obstacles.
• Cut out fender flares. Increases the opening dimensions of the wheel well. (Requires removing a lot of sheet metal.) Bigger opening allows for larger tires, more articulation, and is tough looking.
• Blends with the look of the Jeep Cherokee much better. These fender flares even look like they were made just for the Jeep Cherokee XJ!
• Paintable. Paint to your favorite color or they can be left plain. Either way, the rigid ABS plastic is easy to take care of!
• Helps keep you street legal

Napier Precision Products
Right now, the flares are $425 via PayPal with shipping included!

Also, other product ideas are being worked on. If you have a great idea for a heavy duty plastic product let's talk!

When I cut my fron fenders, I just traced around the flare on the outside where the plastic contacted the metal of the fender, then cut away.

Do you think I have enough fender for these flares to successfully attach?

Interesting question! What I can do is get some dimensions off my Jeep to where the mounting holes are at for the new fender flares. Give me a day or so, just a lot going on right now!
Thanks, DougN

Doug,
What are your thoughts on painting the "trim" in addition to the flares?

 

[shawnxj]

just got my new set of flares and i must say they look damn nice. only bad thing is now i have to paint the jeep so it looks as good as the flares...i hate you doug

Doug,

It says on the product description that it cannot be painted.

So are one of those "new" products gonna be a two door version?

 

[blacksheep01]

Hey, I recognize that jeep! So honored Doug!

 

[jdougn]

Doug,

From the manufactuer, the edge trim is not considered "paintable". It flexes around more and the paint will flake off.

Hey great! Let's see picts when you get them installed.
And, here's for the love!
