I'm sure this is our own fault. America = Lawyers = Lawsuits.

Someone's kid will fall out of their Jeep, they will say it was because of the door, then go after BestTop. I probably wouldn't produce them either for that very reason.

Lawyers = downfall of this Great Nation. Ie. Clinton.

Sorry to any lawyers out there. Well, not really :toung:

ya, I remember the days when you could go outside and shoot your red ryder BB gun or pull out your bow and arrows. Now you'd get arrested

It's not all lawyers, just the ambulance chasing ones. Remember, there are 12 regular idiots that give those rediculous settlements for things like hot coffee in your lap. Sheeesh!

That is why I said "I'm sure this is our own fault".

I spoke with someone at Bestop who told me that rear doors will be available for the JK Unlimited. She could not give me an exact time frame, but assured me that they would be produced.

I was thinking of fabricating some doors out of 1/2" Lexan. It's easy to work with and tough material. The only downsides are that it's expensive.

Default Reward!

$10 reward to the first person that finds out
the rear Element doors are officially available for
order. Winner must post the news on this
thread FIRST to claim the reward.
Pricing information would be appreciated.

As soon as this is posted, would someone else verify
with Bestop?

Anybody wanna put up matching funds for this contest?

I'm tired of searching on the forum and on Bestops
site only to be repeatedly dissappointed. I can't bear to look
anymore.

I emailed them a question at beginning of the week about their bumper and about the doors and they ignored the door question.
