Freebies With Half Doors

[The Last Cowboy]

Are you sure that you didn’t get a Willys instead of a Willys Sport? What headlights do you have?

WTF were they thinking allowing that to leave the factory! I didn't really notice in your other photos in other thread! That different light!

The full doors are installed at the factory and painted at the same time. The half doors are separate and not painted with the vehicle at the same time... They may not be QCing them next to the vehicle.

Nope it’s a Sport. Standard halogen headlights.

Speaking of freebies, since you have a 2-door, remove the jack. I bet you have two extra door locks tucked in a bag back there...

BTW, the paint on my doors was off also. I don't notice it anymore and I've never had anyone mention it despite the half doors drawing lots of attention.

I’ll take a look, thx. Which top do you have? Looks great.

This is making me wish I ordered half doors. Those look like so much fun.

Maybe if you let the half doors sit in direct sunlight for a few weeks the color will begin to match. I know clear coat is supposed to be UV stable, but in most cases it is not 100%.

Man, glad I ordered my JLU in white. At least I have a fighting chance of the half doors matching in white.

I think Jeep screwed up not allowing people to not order one or the other. I wish I could have ordered only half doors without power windows. They would also been painted at the same time on the vehicle and would match.

White is actually the hardest color to match. Black is the easiest.

Either way, I would strongly advise against ordering this option in metallic. May install the doors only to find them heavier in metallic then the tub and lighter in color.

Granite Crystal Metallic with half doors here. Paint matches fine.
