Reviews for Crown Automotive 5KCK Smooth Paintable Fender Flare Kit for 07-18 Jeep Wrangler JK
They look great! Fenders took paint well and seem sturdy.
They seem to be good quality as OEM
High quality flares. Thickness and quality rival OE. Only issue, it was difficult to attach in all places. The included clips are just a tad too big and it made attaching them in a few places difficult. I would definitely buy them again. Just save as many factory clips as possible and reuse them especially on the bends and ends.
Fender flairs look good when all is said and done, it's getting to that point. The flares are not of the quality of OEM, they seem to be a thinner, flimsier material. The fitment was poor because they were a bit deformed due to the relatively thin material, that made attaching the inner front inner fenders difficult, rear was no problem. Because of the flimsy material it was tough to attach the flares to the fender, the ridge with the clips had too much give in them to allow the clip to go into the slot. I had to install the flares first and push the clips in by hand and then install the inners fenders which was difficult because of the poor fitment but this is where the flimsy material was an advantage because I could just manipulate the flare enough to get the inner fender where it needed to be. I had it painted at a reputable body shop that has done work for me before on other stuff made of the same material and it lasted for years so I expect the same with these. It came with plenty of clips & rivets to do the job. Actually it came a bags full of grey clips and each flare a bag of black clips. The black clips worked well, the grey clips didn't want to stay in place in some places.
But when all is said and done they do look really good and is a vast improvement over the standard black flares. I would recommend trying to find used OEM Sahara flares before buying these.
These are terrible and cheap. I’ve only had them a couple months and they are already peeling. Mounting them was difficult due to their lack of shape and fitment. I wish that I could get my money back.
