All I have to say is, RICE!!
Making Lambo Doors
i heard our fenders get in the way of lambo kits. just remember to watch for the fender and to build strong brackets cause out doors are heavy as hell. shouldnt be too hard for a person with skill and the right equipment. just be prepared to get made fun of cause of the whole rice thing. i personally think it can be useful with a car that has big doors like ours. good luck

Personally i don't care for the Lambo. doors, but i was watching "Pimp My Ride" yesterday morning and saw them put "the best on the market" lambo door brackets on this car. It was rather interesting...they just bolt up to the body and you don't even have to remove the door to do so....but the guy said they were like 5 grand, i think the name started with a "K" or something?

I think people see it as rice because on all the f-bodies ive seen, they do rice out everything and then add lambo doors. Ive yet to hear someone call a vette with lambo doors "rice", so who knows.

everyone has their likes and dislikes. I personally don't like lambo doors at all on any domestic car or even on imports for that matter. It's just not my thing. but like i said, everybody's different. I will never buy lambo doors for anything I own while i'm alive. Also, to a guy that drives a corvette, i would seriously rather die than put lambo doors on them. It's just disrespecting the corvette name. Personally, i'm more into the performance of a vehicle than the looks of it such as putting the doors on it or other accessories. Just leave it to the imports to do those things.

everytime i see an import, which there are many where i live, my dad always tells me that that is what they like and that's why they did it to their car. This is true in many ways but i still give them a hard time 
. In my own, when it comes down to the car, i'd rather have a car that runs nines all motor than a high-quality show car. But, if you can pull both of them off, then what the hell.

I don't think anyone's gaining the ability to park in tight spaces with these doors. The doors stick out pretty far to clear the fenders, and in a tight space there's no way that's happening.
I can squeeze my skinny *** out of my barely cracked door with the window down, but even if these lambos will stop partially open, what am I gonna do crawl out underneath? That would look real smooth!
