I'm looking to get the evo corner guards and I was just wondering if they hold up good off road and can take a good beating. And any pics would be appreciated.

There are a lot of people here running the EVO corners with and without the tire carrier. The owner of the forum has the corners and tire carrier on two jeeps. Go check out the wayalife YouTube channel. You'll see plenty of wheeling videos with them.

Yes what he said. I have mine and they are 3/16 thick. They will take a beating compared to the original body panels that are paper thin.

I have old style made for both. Overlanderjk has the new style.

You would save a little going with the older.

Get yourself a quality nut sert tool and if you don't have a plasma cutter, get an air saw. It made my life a whole lot easier when you're cutting into the support bracket behind the sheetmetal for the tail lights. If you're lazy about wiring (like I am), Poison Spyder makes a harness to make the conversion from your stock tail lights to the new LED ones a lot easier. They include the resistors too so you don't get the rapid blinking.

The led kit from evo looks like its plug and play. I have a good nut set tool and a air saw already so that's no problem.

They used a little body filler over the bolts and then sprayed it with Line-X. The also sealed it up completely around all the edges with some type of filler since otherwise sand and dirt gets in there and destroys the paint really quickly and will cause rust. I think it turned out really well.

Not quite plug-and-play. You'll have to cut the plug off of both the kit and the stock taillight and solder the stock one to them. Not a huge issue though
 
I originally went with the EVO rear lights. I ended up replacing them rather quickly with these LED rear lights. Personally, I like them a lot better. Now, the EVO corners, I absolutely love them.

I didn't like the look of them. They looked and felt cheap to me. I also didn't like that they didn't have backup lights or side markers, so at least side markers would have to be added to be legal where I live. Just my opinion though. Some people like them. I'm not one of them. I actually ordered the Trail Tail LED's within 24 hours of seeing the EVO's installed.

The thing I don't like about the Trail Tails is the entire manual is between these quotes " ". It's not too bad to figure out the wiring though. Just make sure you pick up some 50 watt 6 Ohm resistors if you don't want strobes. They make an adapter to install these in a hole the size you cut for the other lights which is convenient. This video helped sell me on them.
