Originally, my plan was to chop it and have a removable soft top, but I was waiting forever for a guy to get tubing to make me a 4 point cage to add rigidity to the back before I continued with the soft top. So I was going to temporarily enclose it with the fiberglass liftgate that was on the jeep to start with, but I really liked the way it looked. I fiberglassed the stock liftgate to the d-pillar that was cut off and welded into the c-pillar, and I welded the bottom half of a steel liftgate (from a 99) to my rear quarters to have a tailgate of sorts. It's not a functional tailgate now, but it will be when my cage is put in, which will be within the next few weeks. The last picture is of a rendering of the jeep with the cage in it. There's not much movement in the body, but I want it to be stronger than it was stock, so the cage will help with that and it'll give me a place to mount my spare tire.
