No offense and I hope non is taken. Lambo doors are for lambos or stupid ricer hondas. Take the "tons of money" u were going to drop into lambo doors and do heads/cam or if ur looking apperance only, do one of the following: Rims/tires, hood, spoiler (not some 2' tall one), new paintjob/flamed/racing stripes... etc!

Please dont make our beloved F-body look like ricer ****!

If it's his car why the hell do you care what he does with it?

As for the original question...if you search you will find some info on the Lambo doors, there are some pretty good kits out there, just search...you'll find it. Good luck.

instead if wasting your money making everyone laugh at you, do something good with all that money and donate it to the red cross for hurricane relief or something

What everyone is trying to say is, there are other mods that are more worthwhile for your money. Most of the people on here don't like it, but then again it is your car. If it is something you really want to try then go for it.

Have any of you realized that you are just arguing amongst yourselves? If he wants to have the doors, let him. I laugh at some F-Bodies/Corvette's I see with stupid *** ricer mods as I roll by in my car. But it's their money and their time they're investing on a vehicle that is theirs. I'm sure he wouldn't be the first to do a stupid mod on these cars...

Just my opinion

What can you do with your doors? How about open then and close them. Don't do any of that lambo crappy stuff on these kind of cars. If you had a sport compact then yes but this is a muscle car. But if you do end up doing it I personally will laugh at you (I have the right to do that) and a lot of other people will do it to. Do you want to get laughed at?

Aside from the reactions that you will most likely get based on the majority of the responses posted here, doing a lambo door conversion poses another problem: the doors don't open straight up and forward like on an actual lamorghini, they open up and OUT to the side at almost a 45 degree angle. This is going to cause alot of problems for you if you ever have to park in a crowded area that has tight parking spaces. Most of the cars I've seen who get this extreme with the mods are show only. Having a car with doors that open like this would make it pretty burdensome after awhile because you'd always either have to be overly careful not to get door dings, or in the case that you were somewhere where it was crowded and parking was limited, possibly being forced to park in a remote location because the spaces available were too cramped to allow you enough clearance to get out of your car. Not worth it, IMHO.

I don't like the idea of messing with the doors, but honestly i'd do suicide doors way before i'd do lambo. The lambo doors mess up the lines of the car (those things right before the rearview mirrors. Suicide doors wouldn't be as bad.

Why not do something more like a DeLorean (wing-type) Probably more feasible if you have T-Tops and convert them into your hinges.

































j/k see what it would cost you and decide if you want to go fast or look fast!!

heres my .02 cents. if you have the money to do it any YOU want to, do it! its YOUR car not anyone elses epecially anyone on this board. also, i recommend searching for it cause you can probably find what your looking for.
personally i dont like it but thats me. plus i dont even know if you could do it, since those aerodynamic things infront of the mirror are there, i think the actualy movement of the door might interfere with them, but i could be wrong.
