Ace rock sliders will stop just about any front door, coupe or sedan, from dinging you. The rear doors, typically where children exit are still an issue. Ace sliders plus a lift will put you into a safer place.

You should just cover it up with some armor skins like Poison Spyder. Costs 200 bucks and will make your stuff super strong.

Even the side steps would do the job of blocking door hits.
I really wanted to change my side steps for rubicon rock rails but those won't protect against door hits.
Really like mopars tube rock rails but to expensive.

Must have been a well placed door hit. I have the steps on mine that come with saharas.

x2 on rock rails, a lift and tires that stick out about 1-1.5" from the fenders should help w/ the door dings.
