Sadly it's not what I did, yet, but I researched going doorless in my 01 and its not as hard as I thought.

Started with the front JEEP emblem and sprayed it with Plasti-dip.Only 4 more to go.
And cleaned some glue residue on the side where the old panels used to be. Getting ready for Rihno lined bed spraying.

Just got my new Napier Fenders installed today. Come out really sweet. Gave me a lot more clearance. Easy to install.

About to pull the trigger tomorrow on front and rear bumpers, And sliders from JCR.

JCR makes some good stuff man. I have beat their sliders pretty hard with no problems. I also got clipped by a truck in their front bumper (only going like 20 but still) and all that happened was it cracked my tail light. Messed up his grill pretty bad though haha.

Today, I figured out that my hard starting issues are directly related to the fact that the wire from the distributor cap to the ignition coil wasn't plugged in. D'oh! So I plugged it back in and all is right with the world again.

How'd it go? Pics? I was wondering how hard it'd be to get the parts you don't want on off, without messing up the parts you keep.
