Just wondering if any of you 4dr JK owners have pics of the Body Armor or any other 1/2 doors in the front but stock doors in the rear?
What do you guys think that would look like? 1/2 doors in front and stock in rear??
I'd love to do all 4 but with the weather here.... rain and snow and no garage to park in full time it might be too much work to change out 4 doors.
So all opinions appreciated.... a 4 dr with 1/2 doors in front stock on rear? Ok look or bad idea? Thanks

I have the B/A half doors but never did this combo. Right now I'm running no front doors & half rear doors (cause of my dogs).

I don't think your combo would be that bad, but the rear doors are way easier to take off/put on than the fronts, so I don't think it's that much of a PITA to do all 4.

Next week I'm putting the full doors back on for the weekend, so I'll try to take a pic with your combo of front halfs & rear full before I finish.

If you have children I understand, but otherwise why bother leaving them on? they weigh less and are easier to get off than the fronts, just run all body armor doors or no doors at all...

Yeah knowing me I'd buy all 4 anyway... I like no doors too but my GF feels unsafe. And I like the look of the Body Armor 1/2 doors and the price seems alright too. Thx
