I like them, but I am in the minority. Vertical Doors or something like that is the brand you want I believe. Its gonna cost ya to have it done right, and I belive you have to swing the door normaly then bring it up, and then make sure you have it lined up before you close it.

i think its fine but you have to get the right ones and put on right or else its gonna rub when you close the doors...especially with our doors being so heavy

also not sure but i havent heard of a kit yet where you dont have to modify the fender where it runs into the mirror...but then again i dont think that applys to the TA

I think its comical how almost exactly every 3 months a thread about lambo doors shows up. Yet nobody ever actually does it.

I say get them. You should check out http://wingdoors.com/ their kits are 90 degree angle, so you dont have none of that weird off angle $#!t or that looks crocked. Vertical Doors and LSD door kits are too expensive and on a camaro you may have to modd your sideview mirror ( friend found out the hard way)
