Nothing wrong with that. I went doorless before I lifted. Ill admit it look kinda goofy but I loved it at the same time.

My doors close better and easier now than before I went doorless! The slightest push and it closes itself. I've gotten nothing but compliments, and many double takes and pictures taken. Surprisingly I get a lot more attention/waves/conversations from Wrangler drivers and even the Harley bike guys seem to like it lol.

Lol, power heated tan leather? When I first bought the Jeep in November I hated the tan interior and planned to swaps gray Sport interior into it. Now it's grown on me more and I think it goes good together.

I'm seriously a sucker for a tan interior. Ever since the 328i I had with a tan leather interior I was in love.

Because I did away with to rubber grommet when I went doorless for ease of removal. Now after taking them off 30+ times the wires are getting chewed up.

Do you want some discos I have some that are pretty heavy duty and last a long time in the weather. They came out of some a/c units I have replace with newer more efficient models

When I very first took my doors off I only removed the front doors.
Then I decided it looked silly with the back doors still on so I took off the back doors.
Then I decided it looked silly with no doors but still had the hatch so I took it off.
Then I decided it looked silly with a hatch but still had a roof so I cut it off.
Then I wanted a sunroof so I cut a huge ****ing hole in what was left of the top.

BAM! When it rains it pours.

Comments:

When I had only the front doors off I got "What happened to your doors?" Response: "They blew off a couple miles back." *Drive away*

Once I'd chopped the rest of it up I just mostly get compliments and folks breaking their neck staring while driving down the road. Had one dude rear end a car in front of him cause he was staring at the Jeep.
