MetalCloak is an American manufacturer based in California that has been designing and building off-road components exclusively for Jeeps for over two decades. Every part is CAD-engineered, laser cut, welded and finished in-house, and the company backs its structure and coating with a lifetime warranty.

Rear Flare Mounting Plates, mod cut, Pair - Jeep LJ Wrangler

The base for quick-release rear flares - a lighter and cheaper alternative to full corner guards. The plate covers the fender edge and provides the flare mounting points, but does not armour the whole corner.

mod cut version: for a body with a raised, trimmed fender opening - typically after preparation for large tires.

Black Textured Powder Coat

The powder coated version carries MetalCloak's signature micro-textured semi-gloss finish. It resists stone chipping and local trail damage can be touched up without refinishing the whole part.

Specification

• Plates: 1/8" (3.2 mm) cold rolled steel
• Finish: black powder coat
• Fitment: Jeep LJ Wrangler 2004-2006

Alternative: if you also want rear corner protection, the corner guards (2432, 2435, 2438, 2440, 2439) are the right choice. The base plates are lighter and cheaper but offer no armour.

Before painting: the manufacturer requires a test fit on the vehicle before any custom paint or powder coating. Painted parts cannot be returned.

Installation

Easy. 2-3 hours. Drilling into the body is required.

A note on vehicle age

TJs and LJs are now twenty to nearly thirty years old. Expect seized bolts and corroded frame threads when removing factory parts - soak the joints in penetrant beforehand and use anti-seize on reassembly. Several reviews of TJ parts are really about this rather than about the part.

We import this product directly from the MetalCloak factory in the USA. Please contact us for the current lead time before placing an order.

MetalCloak backs its products with a lifetime warranty on structure and coating for the original owner. The warranty does not cover accident damage, incorrect installation or owner-performed modifications. As an authorised dealer we handle the whole claim process for you.
