Default FML! The door got me!!!

Took the doors off for the second time and BAM the door swung open and dented my jeep with the mirror. I just got very excited and totally forgot about it.
I was real careful not to do this the first time I took them off because I saw this happen to people on here even before I got my Jeep.
FML!

Check out the little mirror I put over the dent. It was about $6 at AutoZone and sticks on with 3M. Covers the dent perfectly and I am legal for $6

Haha. It happens to the best of us. Luckily...ive added rr hinge covers and now when the door opens and the strap is off it still can't get there

Bummer. My windshield lights stop my door before it hits the body. It's not a jeep until it's got scars. Have fun with it

Ha ha I am with the yeti! Those who have it wear it as a badge. I have had mine for almost three years and don't think I will ever get rid of them. And I say them because I was dumb enough to have it happen to both sides.
I like your mirror fix though. Keeps you legal and looks good!
