Yes the hard doors are slightly squared but I trimmed these to fit better, at least on my softtop(not sure difference if any in a hardtop to softtop at that point). I am going to apply weatherstripping, in whatever way I need to. Honestly not super concerned with some egress of water.Awesome progress!
Any thougts on weather sealing the top corners of the door? In the pictures they look rounded, where on the regular doors they are squared. Im not at my jeep at the moment but those seem like spots where rain would work its way in.
Also at this point before I get too excited I need to test these(at least the skin) for durability as its easy to poke through it. The industry makes thicker sheets but I bet its as susceptible to puncture. Plus they cost more. Another material for skin might be a plywood made with exterior glue. The issue of course will be weight, and painting with a very good exterior paint. I considered it in both a 3/8" or 1/2". The problem is very few layers. Would need less frame though, maybe just the metal for bend and a couple for side to side strength.
