5. Maintenance
To ensure the longevity and appearance of your Hooke Road Aluminum JK Inner Fender Liners, follow these simple maintenance guidelines:
- Regular Cleaning: Periodically clean the fender liners with mild soap and water to remove accumulated dirt, mud, and road grime. Rinse thoroughly.
- Inspect for Damage: After off-road excursions or significant impacts, inspect the liners for any signs of damage, such as dents, cracks, or loose fasteners.
- Check Fasteners: Ensure all mounting hardware remains tight. Re-tighten any loose bolts or screws as needed to prevent rattling or detachment.

6. Troubleshooting
While these fender liners are designed for durability and ease of installation, minor issues may arise. Here are some common troubleshooting tips:
- Rattling Noise: If you hear rattling from the fender liners, check all mounting points. Loose fasteners are the most common cause. Tighten all bolts and screws securely.
- Improper Fit: If the liners do not seem to fit correctly, double-check that you have the correct liners for the front and rear, and for the correct side of the vehicle (left/right). Refer to the installation instructions to ensure all steps were followed precisely.
- Damaged Finish: Minor scratches on the powder coat can often be touched up with a suitable black automotive paint. For significant damage, consider professional re-coating.
