Do a search for lambo doors. Someone else asks every few days! You're definitely NOT alone!

99% of the F-Body crowd are going to tell you not to do it. I would not do.

Reinforce the frame big time. Even factory power over time tweeks the frames of our cars.

I like the lambo thing, but from what i understand, there are no kits out for us. the targa thing would look good, but our bodies aren't strong enough and you would probably have problems down the road. there is a blue T/A or camaro with targa and it looks great, someone might remember who.
