Any ideas on front inside fender liners for a 97 tj. Only ones I’m finding have to be paired with certain flares
Inner fender liners

Your post is lacking details, are you looking for Jeep TJ factory inner fenders?
It would beneifit everyone if you could post some clear high res photos of what you are trying to replace.
Sorry for the lack of details. I’m trying to replace the factory ones with aftermarket ones similar to the ones in the picture. I’m only finding a few and it seems that I would also have to switch to that companies fender. I’d like to keep the fenders that I just installed on
Correct, you are “likely” not going to find an aftermarket inner fender for stock fenders.
You could fab some or have some fabbed up to your liking.
Begs the question, why do you want aftermarket inner fenders ?
Your pics, because of the lighting, make it very hard to see the detail above the tire. It looks fine. Is the engine bay exposed?
It looks like that is a factory flare. Just trimmed. I think he is looking for a recommended wheel well liner for looks. There are some cool looking ones out there. I agree that there wont be any change with the factory liner. You can easily duplicate the factory liners profile with thicker material. I have had good luck purchasing rubber material on amazon.
Yes. That is a trimmed factory flare turned into glorified lawn edging and makes the wheel opening look too large and unfinished.
The picture is too dark for us to see if the rubber skirt material is still there. That is the only thing I can think of that if missing would expose a large gap into the engine bay.
ya the rubber is there. it looks all intact.
unless you remove and butcher those fenders, there are no options other than paint.
if it's the gap above the frame to the flexible material that bugs you. get new material and cut the pattern so it's longer. that flexible flap keeps junk out but also keeps the components from contact when it's flexing.

He isnt aking for opinions on whether or not he needs them hes asking if anybody knows of any
I don't know of any at all. I think your only option would be modifying stock inner fenders, or custom fabricating some like @Fouledplugs showed in his post above.
Honestly you should just put your good ones back on. That is, if you were smart and bought some used ones to cut up to see if you liked the look.
Allows for you to put your good ones back on if the junk ones you cut look...like trash.
Looks worse now, if I am being honest. But thankfully if you did cut your good ones, new fender flares can be purchased for like $100.
Makes sense. Buy some factory flares and it will look a lot better.
Hello,
This is coming in late but looks like this company makes them, just ordered a set we’ll see how they are, seems to have great reviews from communities outside of Jeep so giving it a whirl. And I don’t know much about rubber but seems to be pretty cheap for the only ones in town making em.

That's not the inner fender... that's the splash shield that sit under and on the OEM inner fender.
That being said...nice find...mine are covered in white over spray from a PO bad paint job.
