i havent seen the new srt8 in person yet but maybe you can help. my question has to do with the small pieces (flares) above the wheel wells and on the doors. how are they attached to the body? do they bolt on the fender edge and have double sided tape? do you think these could be put on a non srt8 wk2? thanks

thats the plan (already got my parts list with the part numbers ready) but i was just curious about those pieces. im sure that they will use the same push in plastic rivits on the fender edge as my non srt8 wk2 but i was most curious about what held the them on near the body line.

If the parts are cheap enough, simply colour match them and Sikaflex them to your Jeep, carefully to get the panel to line up beautifully..

No need to drill or mod the Jeep. And Sikaflex will NEVER let go.

You'll also need new wider wheels to fill it out otherwise it will simply look ridiculous.

The fender flares will bolt on the wk2 nonsrt.....good luck finding a set. Plus they won't line up with the nonsrt bumpers....

ya i knew that they wouldnt line up with a non srt8 bumper. was told they have to be ordered but didnt get a time frame. thanks
It seems you know it all so I'm unsure why you're asking us!?

:rolleyes:
