Reviews for Quadratec Aluminum Inner Fender Liners for 18-24 Jeep Wrangler JL
I was driving across the prairie in Oklahoma a while back and one of my front plastic OEM liners decided to bail on me. The wind caught it at freeway speeds and sent it into the tire where it got shredded. I’ve been looking for replacements ever since.
I wanted something cost effective (some brands are way overpriced for a piece of aluminum with a couple of brakes in it). I wanted something fairly easy to install and remove for shock access. Something that was protective and durable. And lastly, something that didn’t look stupid.
Enter the Quadratec aluminum liners. I can only speak for the front ones, but I’m very pleased. Much easier to install than some I’ve put on previous Jeeps. Easy installation, they look nice, the mounting points secure it very well, and all the electronic bits and the engine bay are covered.
One note though. The instructions, as well as Quadratec support, says you have to remove the fender flares to install these. Absolutely not true. There’s no mounting point that you can’t reach with the stock fender flares still on the vehicle. I had both sides installed in less than fifteen minutes. Three screws, pop some fasteners and plastic rivets, and the OEM liners pull right out, giving you access to all necessary mounting points for the Quadratec liners.
Overall, five stars. And I would buy them again.
So another review says this does not fit the Gladiator, but that's only partially true. I have the fronts on my 2020 Gladiator, and they fit without issue. The JL and JT have the same front but unfortunately have a different rear.
That said, I love the look of these inners paired with my Quadratec Baja fenders. I left the Quadratec plate silver but you can easily paint it to match your Jeep or any other accent color you want.
Now if only Quadratec would make a set of rear inners for the JT....
The way they look.
Look and price
The installation was very easy to do! I just love that you can also personalized the Quadratec metal piece by painting it the colour of your choice! We’ve chopped my OEM fenders a year ago and I’ve been looking since then for an actual inner fender model that I liked the look! They are made of aluminum so very light weight! You also have little integrated holes to add rock lights! So very well made!
Solid product! I bought these, because I am not a fan of bulky inner fenders with the designs all other the place. I wanted something simple yet cool looking and these definitely provide that. I didn’t have to do any trimming to liners and the bolted up really quick and easy.
Too much trimming needed. Looks good afterward but be ready for adjustments
Product might be great for wranglers, but it **does NOT fit gladiators**. Despite Quadratec's website that still clearly lists glads under the fitment tab and verified it fits my glad in the price box. I see now after my flares are already off the jeep and all the tabs broken that in the Q&A section it says it does not fit gladiators - but even they the webpage was not updated to reflect. Frustrating.
