Default Door Entry Guards?

Door Entry Gaurds...

Do you have them?
What are your thoughts

I scuffed up my door jam pretty good with a pair of sandals that had a bottle opener on the bottom. Im looking for something to cover it up and protect it from further abuse. Are they thin enough to not get in the way of the door closing... the doors on the JK with the hard top are hard enough to close at times! For those of you who have them are they worth it?

Ditto. I've had the black mopar stick on guards for a year now. No signs of fading or cracking and they've protected that entry lip. Good $25 investment.

Have you thought about trying some spray bed liner on the entry? That stuff seems to work on everything else.

I've seen a guy on this forum bedline the door sills for less than $25 if you want to go that route. Seems like a good idea to me

They are not to expensive and I have yet to try the spray on bed liner on anything although I am planning to do the hard top sometime soon. Might try the door entry after I do the hardtop! thanks for the ideas
