Great for those tight trails.

If you want your paintwork to look good while still having fun on the trails, this is the ticket. Just remember to store them horizontally, I put mine on a shelf in the garage and they will be fine. I clean the jeep and put them on at night before we leave. You saved my color so much. Look how scratched they are. That would be my door!

Pros
  • Printable surface for maximum personalization
Cons
  • Blank

Worth buying for tools and equipment

The Arizona desert strip sucks. But that's part of jeep life here. You can see for yourself how much violence it took in just one trip. Rubbed and removed, minimal scratches on the edges of the doors that can be removed with little effort. My off road club members were impressed to realize they are magnets and did such a great job protecting the jeep.

Pros
  • Matte black finish
Cons
  • Not as good as it says

Excellent body protection

First day off road and I have to say they protected the body well. Also, they held up well on the freeway, although I didn't go over 80mph as the product says they drain after 80mph. The only downside was that I couldn't attach the wing pieces because it doesn't have a hole for the Mike Adam emblem on the underside of the wing. So I may have to make my own hole for the part to work.

Pros
  • Protects sides and doors from road debris
Cons
  • Cord is shorter than other picks

The smaller magnets also look like they will fly away at highway speeds

Unfortunately the emblem cutout doesn't match the 2017 Rubicon Jeep so I had to return them, the emblems aren't in the same place as the antenna, it is centered and the antenna is slightly off-centre. The smaller magnets also look like they're flying away at highway speed. If you're just buying it for door magnets this works great, but if you want to cover it with front fenders it won't work.

Pros
  • 80 mph highway
Cons
  • Exterior

You will most likely damage the paint.

I thought it was a great idea to avoid scratches the right way. The item is beautiful and fits perfectly. However, a white haze remained on the paint. We have tried everything to remove the haze but to no avail. I'm not sure if sand got behind the magnetic armor and scratched the clear coat when it was baked in the sun, but I've always applied the Jeep when it was clean and never left it for more than 24 hours anyway left, and my paint is worn out. For now I think having scratches is better…

Pros
  • Magnetic and flexible backing for easy installation and storage
Cons
  • Older model

Watch out for abrupt weather changes.

Pro- This is FABULOUS for track use, saved my black C/Coat many times. Easy install. on the bike, 90+ weather den all day, on the way home (3 hours drive), got caught in a violent thunderstorm, i took them off at home, the next day i now have foggy spots on the paintwork on all the metal sheets where the outline of the magician's armor was discovered. I do my part with drastic temperature and water changes caused by rain.As a bodyman/artist by trade it doesn't just get polished so now I have to

Pros
  • .062" (1.6mm) 3-ply protection
Cons
  • Newer model

I would give it a 5 but the front left fender piece was not cut exactly to fit. It goes well with the JK badge but as you can see from the photos it is too narrow at the bottom and too wide at the top where it matches the fender. There's no way to customize it to make it look like it's here. It doesn't make sense because the one on the antenna side fits perfectly and it should be its mirror image. Quality control should fix this. I didn't think I would like the painted rivets at first, but they

Pros
  • Operating Temp 0-130°F
Cons
  • Hard to tell
