Is there a discussion I missed about any that are worth owning? I inadvertently let my last set get away and now am in need. Rubicon copy, smooth, paintable, any thing out there?
 
I looked not to long ago and nothing exists that I could find unfortunately. Only in standard 3.25" width.
 
Its always been my observation that its only the standard 3.25 width or the crazy 7 inch wide in the aftermarket. I don't think the 4.5 inch wide are that rare though in the resale market. My 2005 Rocky Mountain Edition and my 06 Rubicon came with the same width flares. I recently picked up some Sahara flares that are the same width and have the same part number aside from color code.
 
I think it was only the Sport and SE models that had the narrow, textured flares while all the other trim levels had the smooth, painted flares.
Or am I remembering incorrectly?

No. I've been searching everywhere recently because mine are pretty banged up and I'm not paying $400 for Mopar.
 
We shall see. Thanks. Oddly, myself and others have searched many times and that has never popped up.
I'd be surprised if they did. I ordered a set from a dealorship a month or so ago only to receive an email that they weren't actually in stock. I found a NIB set from Davey's jeeps after that, but it was his only set. That set ended up having 2 driver side rear flares and no passenger rear flare, luckily I was a able to find that on eBay. I think at this point its either used or searching for someone that has extras hidden in their basement.

Yep, been there done that. We'll see and I have no illusions they will have them.
 
I searched for these for a few months earlier this year. A few Mopar sites would actually let you order them but availability seemed sketchy as most showed them as discontinued. Same with Quadratec but they had a delivery window 6 months out. So I called them and they said they were looking for a new source? Now I don’t even see it listed on their site.
