I guess since Smittybilt went under, they're trying to deplete their old stock.

You have pics of these mounted? I may order me a set for my TJ. I like them cause i dont have to start hacking away at my old fenders. These have turn signals up front right?

You'll have to add turn signals....either a la CJ style (I plan on doing this with some yellow LED's) and you will also need to bracket one on each side to stay legal (maybe a 2" LED "L" bracketed to the fender for me).

I just joined this site and this is the first time ever using a forum, so if I screw up, I apoligize.  

I bought these about two months ago, and they do come with turn lamp mounts for the front and side lights.  Although I am not a big fan of the way the light mounts look, I am very pleased with the way the fenders look and I will put some pics from when I was fitting them.  I was thinking about putting a CJ style light in the grill, but am unsure of what to do with the side.

They don't look too bad but I can see why you don't like the lights.  They're sort of tacked on.  I think I'd replace the side signal with one behind the front tires like on European cars.

So those are the SRC ones??  They look better than I thought.....

I would simply mount a round 2" LED to an "L" bracket on the side of the fender....would definitely look better than what they have....almost negates the fact that you have flat fenders in the first place.

Still looks better than stock...thanks for the pics....add more as you finish.

...and DAMN...that tire is sticking out far...what tires/wheels are you running??

definate CJ for the front...there is some lights that mount to a flush side of anything...they are about 3"long and 1" wide...here in the north country (Canada) people use them on sled decks...other people use them on utility trailers...those would be cool (maybe)

Yeah, I plan to sell the bushwackers as soon as I finish the fender flares.  I am going to make some tube fender flares for the front and rear. I am thinking 3-5 inch wide.  Still unsure, but I think I want to make them look similar to the Poison Spyder flares.  

About the tire/wheel combo, they are 15x8 steelies with 33 12.50 tires.  I dont know the backspacing but I believe it is 4".
