Didn't know they made fenders. Just checked them out and they look nice. Especially the narrow ones.
For what it's worth, I prefer to run stock flares trimmed to my preferred design. It's free and they are very resilient. I kissed a rock with my rear flare and it flexed and barely suffered a scuff.

I've seen a JCR bumper bent in half. I wouldn't run their shit if they paid me.
Steel tube fenders are tough for sure - so much so that I have seen them take a hard hit by a tree or rock only to transfer the energy to the thin body of the JK and buckle it in. Even if JCR made good products, I'll take my trimmed factory fenders any day of the week. Of course, I'm just a mall crawler so you can take that for what it's worth.
But, a steel fender that will taco from a hard hit might prevent body damage :crazy_eyes:
Not a fan of steel fenders either but interested in how the bumper folded up. Full width? Any pics? Not saying I dont believe it so dont take it like that. I've had my Crusader mid width and have hit trees, rocks etc and its been fine. Welds looked real nice, good heat setting. Just wondering if there is a failure mode I have to look out for.
Happened on the JKX. Multiple Jeeps hit the same tree and the JCR is the only one that tacoed.

I hit a car head on with my 3/16" Purejeep bumper. The only thing that tacoed was the PT cruiser.
