Default Custom fender flares?

Hey guys.

I recently put some new wheels and tyres on my TJ. (285/75/16)
I am now looking at getting new fender flares as my tyres stick out roughly 50mm each side.
I wanted something that looked good but didn't cost a heap.

I was thinking of making some flare flares out of conveyor belt rubber. Not sure if they would look good though.

Has anyone made their own custom flares?
Don't care if they are rubber/plastic/metal.
Just looking for ideas.


Cheers,
Paul
