Ahh....I thought he was askig for what model Wrangler the Nylint was modeled after...

Phase, the fenders have been trimmed. IIRC, that Nylint is supposed to have a Cambell Ent. high clearance hood (like most comp TJs do).

Here is a pic of a TJ with the Cambell hood (form their website):

okay, so since the fender flares are "cut off" should i have the tires sticking out the body a little? you got a link to where you got that pic? i couldnt find the Cambell hood website

You guys are close, but it's actually the longer wheelbase L J, the Wrangler Unlimited.
