Comp cut looks badass. Not a good idea for a road vehicle though, unless you want to do Welcome mat mudflaps. Just make sure that you don't cut into the interior part of the tub is all. Its not a unibody like my XJ, so you don't have to worry as much.

Comp cut looks silly with anything less than 6 or 7" of rear stretch. Just trace out the flare, remove it and start cutting.
chris is right a stock wheelbase jeep with a compcut isnt that functional and looks silly your tire is still gonna come up and hit the innerwheelwell by the door. Get some tj flares and make them fit it will free up a couple inches of room. To get an idea of how much comes off the inside of the tj flare is the same distance as the outside of a yj flare basically if you know what i mean
