camo fender flares by rebel99

i can already tell this is my favorite topic on this forum since i love making mods to my jeep haha
 
for a while now ive been thinking about putting camouflage fender flares on my jeeper, but i dont feel like spending 400+ bucks for a new set of fender flares. i have plenty of rolls of camouflage gun tape that i can buy at walmart for 4 dollars a roll, and i would like to take the flares off and wrap them in that stuff but it doesnt hold all too well (often times i have to rewrap my gun after one or two hunting trips). i was wondering if anyone knew either where i could get camo wrap paper for cheap, or if there were like some sort of clear wrap paper that i could cover the flares in after i tape them. or if there are any other techniques to do this job that are still cheap i would love to hear about them.
fire away guys!

Given the flares' texture, getting something to stick WELL will be tough, especially if you offroad it. There may some kind of glue you could apply to the flare to get things to stick, but once you start tearing em up, patching it will not look too good, IMO, unless you redo the whole thing. Your next best bet would be to use some Krylon Fusion primer then perhaps you could paint the flares using a few shades of camo paint. Get some leaves and lay them on your flares as you paint, then remove them as you add layers. You can create patterns at random or using the leaf template and have your own custom flares.
 
Post pics if you go that route.

well it appears that cold air induction and cat backs systems are not held in high esteem here.we just got the wife an 08 wrangler and i had already ordered a cat back from Gibson I was plannig on adding a cold air induction also. whats the story
I have had excellent results on my other vehicles from my Miata,chevy s-10 and Dodge pickup with the 360cid v8. do these items not work on the jeep?

How embarrassing...you said "stock". I must be one brain-cell short at the moment.

Stock?
 
Define fit?
 
Ideally, for offroad, you want at least 3" of lift (such as a 2" budget boost and 1" body lift) to give you room while flexing. You also have to consider your wheel's backspacing. Stock Jeep wheels are backspaced 5.5" and they'll rub the frame like crazy when turning.
 
If you go with Spidertrax wheel spacers or get wheels with 4" of backspacing, you'll be much better off.
