Always loved this look on JKs and finally got all the parts to make it work.
For those not familiar with this setp here are the parts I had to buy:
-Bestop Bikini Top
-Bestop header bar
-Bestop Wrap Around 2dr Wind Jammer
-Bestop duster
-Factory door surrounds (I only have the hardtop option so had to get these)
-Factory tail gate bar with clips

Now for the review: WOW does this suck! lol Took me a good 1.5 hours to put it on. Now granted it was my first time working with any kind of soft top but still. Had to let them sit in the sun and still wound not stretch to fit easily. Busted my fingers trying to pull things into place and in the process I even broke my rear door surround! FML!

Since the 2dr windjammer does not connect to the duster, rain will get in there big time! Also have huge opening in the upper rear corners by the cage bars ...not sure why!?
Also the windammer looks very sloppy with the seats pusing out on it

Not sure if I will ever put this back on when I take it off in a few days. Definitely not sealed at all. The fail rain and jeep would make my 60 mile commute very uneasy.

Any recommendations or words of wisdom? I love this look but not happy with the it goes together and now I have to buy a new rear door surround. Or is there any way to epoxy it back together?

EDIT:
Here are problem pics
WTF. How is this suppose to look? I have this problem both by the windshield and above the pillar in between the doors





Rain will love this


Yes that is a rusty clam holding my busted door surround. I am holding the part that snapped off in my hand. Any way to fix this?

 

The bikini top is supposed to be further back by about 6 inches. Also, you will most likely be able to fix that surround with some plastic epoxy and polyester mesh.

 

I've used the plastic epoxy and fiberglass fabric to fix cracks in plastics. If the part that broke is under any pressure I would just buy new.

 

ahh fail! I guess I did not pull it back enough

 

I thinks the part that's broke is 30 or so dollars from the dealer but you have an extra for the other side if that ever breaks.

 

really? cuz the full set is $280 at the dealer...I'll have to check

 

You should send pics of this to bestop and recommend they make a kit like this. I'd love to have this it looks good but has to be functional.

 

$54.99 from quadratec for a replacement rear door surround for the passenger side.

I wish Besttop (or someone) made a kit like this that seals - that would be great!

 

Someone already does make a kit like this and it fits extremely well. My friend runs it on his JKU no leaks for over 2 years so far.
