Those core doors are the first aftermarket ones that I might choose over factory half doors. Very nice.
I would never use the removable inserts so I would rather have a flat door that looks OEM. They do look like they are a nice fit and high quality though.

Very nice. Will these be available with tan uppers? I really want a tan upper setup for my Gladiator. So tan upper half doors and tan soft top.

If you make it I’ll buy it.
And those look like OEM uppers? Are they the same or just OEM quality ? Very excited about this.
I also noticed the JK uppers are OEM, which gets me thinking for the JL will Bestop need to wait until Jeep offers half doors and would we be required to get the uppers on our own through Jeep as opposed to Bestop.

In any case, nice to see that Bestop is offering this higher quality option than most other aftermarket options. Still I wish they were more like OEM.

On the JK they were a factory option (which it will be for the 2019 JL as well)

It would replace the full doors and would be painted the same colour as your jeep.

They could also be ordered separately from Mopar and painted to match your Jeep. They were around $2500 CDN a pair plus paint.

For the JK half doors, did they come in different colors, or did you have to have it painted by a show to match your JK?

So if you didn't order them with your jeep, you can buy them separately from mopar, and 1. Have mopar paint them? or 2 have a local place paint them?

If i have to have a local place paint them, i'm really hoping they have the dual door group. Would much prefer a factory paint job.

They won’t have a dual door group. It’s just too expensive. All said and done it’s going to be about 6-7k for a set of half doors to add to your jeep if you order it with full doors. Which is what I’ll be leaning toward.

Holy crap, that's a ton of money. I thought they were like $2,000 painted.

I've never liked half doors. They're ugly. They're a PITA when you need to roll (unzip in this case) the window down. The "glass" gets foggy and hard to see through over time. And if it's an open air experience you seek, just take the damned doors off to begin with. To me, half doors were pointless. And apparently others agreed because Jeep started to really dial that option back.

But, good luck with your campaign.
If I really wanted a half door experience I'd just get tube doors

Might be cheaper in the US. But in Canada even with a discount the best I could get on the JK doors were $2500 a pair plus paint. So that s about $5000 plus between $1000-$1500 in paint work.

Yes, but if you order the Jeep from the factory with half doors then it costs the same or cheaper than with full doors. Just like manual is cheaper than automatic, and soft top cheaper than hard top.
