What happens when you snag them on rocks now? It bends the side of the body with it?

I'll stick with replaceable plastic flares. I think of them as 'quick-release'.

Wonder how much they weigh?

I could see tying them into the cage, ski's, and rear bumper of a crawler.

:iagree:
Yea, these would need to be tied into the substructure somewhere, as they are so much stronger than the sheetmetal they would be attached to. At this point, they would just move the damage from the flare to the fender. Flares are cheaper to replace.

They do look better than tubes running around the wheel wells (ARB or TJM etc.).

I think they are sweet and honestly, not THAT much more than a peice of plastic...

... I think they are more for scraping on trees and rocks, I would bet they would work great with the load spread out over the entire fender flare.

Just another .02
