Reviews for Rugged Ridge 11226.13 Elite Tail Light Guards for 18-21 Jeep Wrangler JL with Factory Halogen Tail Lights

This is the third Jeep I have owned, and have ordered a lot of things from Quadratec. Everything I have received has been top notch, easy to install and has lasted the life of the Jeep. I would, and have, recommended them to everyone.

Heavy duty construction, great quality. Looks great on my Wrangler JL and highly recommended.

Fit great on my 2021 Willys. Grabbed a beer, put some college football on the garage tv and took my time with it. Easy to install

These look mean and they also work great. They do have a bit of a rough edge though, and the instructions were a bit more confusing than I thought they would be. They go very nicely with the headlight guards. These are made in Taiwan.

Look great but the “paint” or plastic, whatever is, is cracking off after less than a year-and-a-half. And I wash & take good care of them.

Loved these - until the paint started to flake off. Only been on the Jeep for a little over 2 years. Guess I will be taking them off to scrape and re-paint.

Looks great, feels strong. I gave it 3 stars only because the threading on the outside housing was not good. Had to cut one screw a little less than a quarter inch for it to screw in flush. Ten minute job took half hour to fix.

These look great and are relatively easy to install. However, I STRONGLY recommend you research issues with black powder coating, which is what these have. It has a tendency to start flaking or peeling off. I live in TN - so I don't get intense heat, live near any salt water, and I have only done limited off roading. The powder coat started chipping off about 4 years after I initially installed them and looks terrible now. I'd only get these if you are ok with the possibility of having to swap them out for new ones every few years.

Looks good and fit easily but after one winter the outer coating is cracked and they are covered in corrosion very disappointing in the longevity. product not even a year old.

Rugged Ridge needs to fix the quality of this product. Like others, I purchased these 2 years ago and they have totally corroded and the paint pealed off. I was able to get them warranted by Quadratec after 3 months, but upon removal the bottom screws were seized requiring me to have to cut them apart. If you live where there is salt, don't buy these guards until there made better.
