Default time to take the doors off

its starting to get hot down here in florida and I'm considering taking my doors off.

on my previous xj i took only the front two off and now I'm thinking about cutting all 4 off. The problem with this is that the doors don't line up as they did before you cut them, so if you have people riding in the back they are going to slam them every time they get in and out. After a while of that I'm sure the door latches aren't going to be doing so well.

so my question to you guys is, if you were to take your doors off would you take only the front 2 or all of them?

if you have done it already tell me about it and post pictures

heres my old xj with the doors off

Front 2 is plenty but it really makes people surprised with all 4, I wish you still has the old one

i say take all four off i think just two looks kinda awkward but thats just me. and as for slamming the doors i doubt its gonna really mess it up too much i've had to slam all of mine since i got it.

heres mine with all four off.
