Damn, I hate just waiting.

Got an email about my Jeep going into production yesterday. Frame and paint done, on trim now!

Just placed my order today for a Billet Rubicon 2-Door. I kept it pretty basic with manual trans and half doors.

Now the waiting begins.

I personally love my half doors! I can drop the top, stow my half door uppers behind the rear seat, and hit the road!!! If I get away from the house and it looks like I might get rained out...I have everything with me to get her buttoned back down! You're going to love it!

That kind of post makes me that much more confident I made the right decision.
I had half doors in my TJ years ago. I missed them in the JK I own now. Had planned to replace the doors of my current JK with aftermarket half doors. Ended up replacing the whole Jeep.

Do you (or anyone) have any comments as far as how the new half-doors compare to the half doors of previous models?

I've never had any experience with the TJ half doors. My first Jeep was a '93 YJ and it's doors didn't uhhmm...exist. I bought my '07 3 months ago. It is a black Sahara, and for some reason it came from the factory with a tan top. Yeah...that had to go!! Since then I have replaced the top with a brand new, '10 take off, and replaced the half door uppers with black Mopar units from Quadratec. Absolutely love it now!! Not a single leak, and quiet enough to have a normal conversation with the passenger while running 80 mph without having to shout. The best thing I've noticed about the half doors, is the better outcome you have with the Rugged Ridge mirror relocation brackets if you choose to do so. Anyone with hard doors, loses the use of the passenger side mirror due to the door frame. I still take my doors off when the weather is cool enough...insert "it's a Jeep thing" here. The mirror is fine with the half door uppers off. With them on, you still get a little of the mirror.

When did you order your JK? I ordered mine towards the later half of July and production is still scheduled

Can someone post here when granite becomes avail? Currently serving overseas, but don't want to call the dealer weekly, thanks!

Don't stress it mine went through 3 stages in one day. The web isn't that accurate.

I am pretty clueless I had no idea you could just order a Jeep! That's fantastic!

So you just go to the dealership and order? Is the benefit that it comes custom to you; or is there also a price benefit from not buying off the lot?
