I think with any mod, it's all about personal taste. Most of you who lift and create more of a trail-ride would probably not do this type of mod - obviously, as it has no purpose when you're in the middle of a pit trying to hop out into mud.

I dunno...it would be almost as functional as half doors on the trail...just pop em up & hang your head out for better self spotting...
AND, as an added bonus...
if you DO find yourself in a mud pit, they open out a little, & up a LOT...MUCH easier...
