Very pricey though. The best option for the price I've seen out there are the Bestop Element doors with paintable enclosures and Warrior Products makes steel half doors but I've not seen any feedback on them yet (or many pics).

Aren't these the tube doors with a sheet metal cover on them? Does anyone make a solid type door? I see on another thread that Mopar has a half kit but it would end up being a couple of thousand dollars for unlimited when done.

Yes...the Bestop Element doors are tube doors with metal covers. The Warrior doors shown are not tube doors though. Warrior Doors

Tube door look nice too.. You can fit a mirror without the relocation bracket

And add the cover when you want for a "full" half door.

You can order the Bestop Element the same color as jour JK too.

What is so perplexing or funny about wood doors?

Everyone laughed 2 years ago and now we have this:

Think about it. A new set of doors is only a saw horse and a Home Depot away

The bottom of the warrior web page says that the warrior doors don't seal to the edges and will have gaps.
