Don't think I've seen these on the front doors before, but they make it look interesting

That would be really nice, but I guess none of the AM manufacturers have figured out how to do those and make them look good

not sure what version of armor this is. The MEAP kits we had on Maxx Pro + in 2009 were alot more beefy and completely covered from the door back. This might have been the first version

Black Dog's Add-On Armor looks good for the M1224A1 Maxx Pro MEAP; which is basically the earliest up-armored Maxx Pro (M1224) and appropriate for the Kinetic Kit.



Here's some links to some pics of the early MEAP armored vehicles at our WarWheels.net website:

The other armor packages that are much more common (larger and thicker) were fitted on later versions of the Maxx Pro, including the M1234 Maxx Pro Plus (with Dual Rear Wheels) and the M1235 Maxx Pro Dash, and M1235A1 Maxx Pro Dash DXM.

With that being said, per Rob Skipper's comment, not sure about the mounting brackets though.

Brian.

Your ride is an M1234 Maxx Pro Plus with later MEAP armor. The Plus vehicles can easily be id' by the dual rear wheels, among other differences.
