JK Show & Tell Whether they're just poser shots in your driveway or hardcore action shots on the trail, if you've got photos or videos of your Jeep JK Wrangler (or any JK for that matter that you think is worth showing off, inside or out), we want to see them so please post them here! Likewise, if you are wanting to see a photo of something specific like an aftermarket JK part or poser shot with a specific setup, this is the place to ask for it.

Just curious...

Maybe it would look stupid.. but does anyone out there have a set of full AND half doors? I saw a pic of a 4dr on here that had full doors on up front and no doors on the back.. and he removed the plastic door/soft top frames... i bet full doors on the front and half doors on the back would give the jeep a pretty awesome almost truck like look. - Im not sure how I would feel about having half doors front and back... i think it would look better with out the pillar going all the way up to the roll bar between the front/back doors.. having a full on front and a half on back would make it flow imo.

Anybody try this?

Heres the pic i saw.. i think adding half doors to just the back of this setup would look pretty good.

Exactly what I am planning if I can ever run across a set of rear half doors.

I like to run with the front doors off much of the time, but have promised not to remove the rears with the little kids in back.

Half doors would be a perfect compromise.

Interesting concept ... I have a two door but always like to see what you full-size guys are up to. Post a pic when you do this.

Exactly what I want to do also, kind of give it a truck look. Just something different.
I would want them factory doors, the same color as the body though.....
I hear you cannot get the half doors like that, you have to piece them together, and it is very expensive.....shoudl be able to pretty soon though.....

I would also like to wait on a set of rear factory doors. Might be a while for them to start showing up in salvage yards though.

No way will I be able to justify several THOUSAND bucks for a set.

wait... so... you cant buy half doors? I know its an option when you buy from the dealer... is that the only way to buy new ones? if so thats just plain crazy... i cant beleive that you can buy a factory hardtop or softtop from Mopar but not the different doors. what is Jeep thinking???

how about aftermarket?

The spy photos of that military version JK showed it with solid cut outs in place of half doors just like you talking about and it looked GOOD!!
