Default Bestop soft doors

Quick question for you guys and gals. I purchased these Bestop soft doors and first off they did not fit very well. Thinking that I had done something different I called Bestop. I told them about the issue I was having on the road with their product, which was the door bowing out and about 4 inches of gap showing between the body and the door. Bestops instruction was to bend the door.?. Now I would think that they would have a little better explanation than that after I spent about a grand on front and back doors for my JKU. Anyway, I bent the door frames and this kind of corrected the road issue but today when I went to my jeep after it had rained I now have a small swimming pool in the bottom of the jeep. Anyone out there have a solution to these doors or am I just stuck with an expensive product that looks good and performs like _ _ _ _? Thanks

I have the same doors only on a 2 door. Had to do the same thing for a better fit and seal, however, I guess I would not expect them to keep all the weather out. I would call them fair weather doors. I like mine to get me out to the trail on chilly mornings. Then I take them off while on the trail. They store easily in the back. Good luck with yours.

Seems to be a common issue. Dangit, too bad they don't fit better and/or there was another option. That being said, I'll probably still end up with a set at some point.
