This was posted over on lostkjs.com. Who ever did the work did a real nice job. That is the same color I want to paint mine.

it appears that they bolted the rear flares right on...no altering...

 

I just say that cause the rear flares look low and I can see the wheel wells appear smaller than stock.

 

looks great though

I PM'd the guy. Thats it for the pictures. He seen it in a parking lot and snapped some pics. He also said it looked like the rear flares were just sanded down to match the front.

 

I like the look of the cherokee tail lights.

That's what I was thinking. I can see the flat edge on the outer lip and the 97+ flares don't have that. Looks pretty good. :D

hmm...that makes me want to just sand the fronts when/if i do that conversion, so that it's all the same. i don't wanna deal with plastic welding...

You're saying that the one on the left became the one on the right through SANDING? It's not like the fender flares are a solid hunk of plastic... I guess as the mythbusters say, it's plausible.

I'd sure like to see some "in progress" shots if someone tries this, but I agree they don't quite look like the newer XJ flares--> http://www.cityofgreer.org/client_resources/departments/fire/car%2010%20crop.jpg

they could very easily be made solid, all it would take it some fiberglass strands and some resin.fill it up and start shaping.
