Default Rear quarter guards on a 2 door?

Has anyone made or seen rear quarter guards on a 2 door? Been searching around and can't find anything. Something like this but for a 2 door.

you could use these they will just come up a little short (wont go all the way to the door) you could always take some sheet metal and just add on
personalty i dont think you will need to extend past where they are

Agreed! I think male your own if possible. That would be sick. Then sell them to the 2door owners and make some $$$

Shipping might be a pretty penny on those haha. That would be pretty damn heavy. I'm going to price out the materials and see what I can come up with. If I do it I'll definately do a write up on it.

I have a two door and have researched this a lot a while back, here are a couple of pictures I found. I believe these are JCR Offroad guards and I think this is a CF users jeep. I don't think there is any difference in how they are made. I plan on getting some eventually. THOR makes a good set. hope this helps!

I think they still look good on a two door ^

Rear quarter armor is sweet cause it works but its also one of my favorite aesthetic mods, I think it looks freakin awesome

Id say fabricate your own not all that hard to do. Just sheet of metal really with 2 bends in it for the lines on the xj but i bet if someone could fabricate this. It sell quick cause from my knowledge i dont think there is a 2 door rear quarter guard for the cherokee

think they look alright. i had plans to extend them, but once i installed them it grew on me. then again mine were the same color as the body. i know most people like to run black on their differently colored jeep, or a different color so they stand out more. I prefer body matched.

Nice 2 door! I think the whole panel would look sick on mine though. I love the black and silver
