Sign me up for Donut Doors! Why FORD dropped the ball on this is beyond me, who ever launches it I would think would make bank.

The only think about a bore door that’s better is making out in back seat. But I argue it can done in two door. Plus some extras

i can confirm there is plenty of room in the backseat of the real (2DR) Bronco.

my guess is that the government would not let ford sell Broncos with donut doors on them and they would need to charge so much for them that they would not sell many to make them worth it .

Maybe they couldn't pass the safety test. But I have seen articles where Jeep applied for a donut door patent in 2017, has now received it.

It said jeep got a patent not that they going make them or sell them .Might cost to much and not many people would buy them not many people would pay 3 to 5 k for them when you can only use them part of year.

I’m curious what design on a 4 door would/could even look good and be functionally useful. Look fantastic in 2-door

I think it’d have to be front doors only to not look weird.

This is a rendering I put together in another thread a couple of weeks ago:

Annndddd I need those

 

[wilbersk]

Not seeing the point… ? Why pay for that much “door”? Free to take existing doors off.

Looks better and keeps stuff from flying out.

@FordMotorCompany, please send two free doors to Half Cab guy........I'm sure he could take it from there.

Thats right, they're coming!!! donut doors LLC is a division of Extreme Custom in Waco, Texas where we are currently working on the plugs for the 2 door model. We will be starting on the 4 door in April and start taking orders in early summer! We are getting the social media side up and running as we speak. You can look us up at donutdoors.com or give John a call at 254-537-3728. Email us at [email protected]. We look forward to hearing from all the new Bronco owners out there!!

Updates
* Yes they will be fiberglass
* Pricing still to be determined once first set is completed for my bronco.
* Doors will be similar, (not exactly), too the Concept ones that ford teased us with.
* Once these are done, will look at the version that CAT posted.
here a quick photo of the outer skin cut with a piece of aluminum behind to show depth. 2nd photo outer skin mold with template of cut out. I'll post more in the coming days...

Any updates? How's progress coming along on these?
