There is another issue.  YJ's use two holes for the hood latch.  TJ's have one and two alignment holes.  Personally, I'd rather have TJ style as they are easier to latch.

you could probably ask for a set w/o the holes for the latches, but you're right it is different - didn't think of that.

I'd rather have steel fenders with 3" flares.

Maybe a plastic hood with built in fenders.  http://www.pirate4x4.com/forum/showthread.php?t=693322

The problems with those is, all the stuff that is attached to the inner fender needs to be moved somewhere. Not impossible but a pain.
I do kinda like the look of those thou.

I don't think those are injection molded plastic.  Without any fenders you'll need to run hood clips to keep the hood from lifting off.  They weren't designed to be used on the highways so it will probably shake.

Where did you get that from? Not saying they won't but they say several times they made them for their street driven rigs.

Seen them on a few rock buggies.  I guess they're OK for street but you'll still need to run hood clips.  I still remember seeing the clear polycarbonate hood as well.

No PICS yet.

I would be all over these but I am running steel tube fenders. The MCE ones are made for stock fenders  :'(

So did anyone order a set and try them out yet?

My problem is that my suspension is stock and I have 31's and I dont know how it will look with flat fenders.  What do you guys think?  I can get the XRC (smittybuilt) tube fenders from summit racing for like $260 and these are only $100 less.  But first I would like to know what they would look like, so if you have any pics of a stock Jeep w/31's and tube fenders that would be awesome.
