Default Bestop Element Half Doors

To anyone who is obsessing about half doors
as much as I am....

I emailed Bestop with the following :
Question: When will a set of 4 element doors be available for the JK four door?

I got a reply email from Besttop today.
And I quote...

"The Element doors will be out shortly, I would anticipate the doors to be out within the next couple of months. "

Now does anybody know where can I get the upper door inserts?
Mopar? Aftermarket?

Is the element door on quadratec.

They are only for the front doors, but they do have a soft-top style window that you can buy with the doors.

I want a set of these too, but I want to see what the optional "skins" will look like. With these, you can make the weather-proof (at least by Jeep standards )

From a side view, the skins have a stock half door profile.
The only difference is the paddle handle vs. the new JK door handle.

Inside they'll look completely different, Element bars/pouches vs. stock door panels.

Maybe they will line the inside with easily scratched plastic!

That looks pretty good. Will they be offering them in all the factory colors? If so, I wonder how well they will match.
