Default I made some carbon fiber fender liners for my Jeep

I finally got around to making them. When I put some 31" BFG AT KO's on a set of steelies, they rubbed real bad so I notched out my stock fender liners. Well that didn't really help, and when turning in reverse the tires ripped out the fog light bulbs (both, at different times), breaking the bulb retainers. I really like fogs ( i use bright yellow) so I bought some new housings but before I put them in I wanted to better protect them. This is when I busted out the CF. Because I was making them myself I could mold them to sit closer to the fogs and not protrude into the wheel well as much. I really rushed on these so they aren't perfect (I was leaving for school) but they get the job done. Pix aren't the best but you get the idea.

what type of tree are those behind your jeep. What part of the country are you from. The panels looks nice but the thing that caught my eye was those damn blossoming trees, weird looking.

lol they are pretty sweet. That pic is from MD. The trees are some sort of Japanese carving tree. The gov't came to that guy (neighbor) and said how it would be a good idea to plant those trees to sell as carving wood. They may have even helped fund it. Well it turns out they were wrong (big surprise) and the trees were never cut.
