Im not dissing you dude, but as I'm looking at the doors, don't you have to get in and out sorta weird??

Like i feel like I'd have to sorta lean back a lil and slink into the car or else hit my head on the door.

convinced, just a few questions ive wondered about lambo doors; is the door heavy to open or not? also, was any body work needed? can you get us a few photos of the door closed, and a close up of where the door closes (ie just under the mirror) thanks.. how much did that cost you?

I'll try to get some pics posted up. But no it's not hard to open and close them. The inside of the fender needs to be cut so that the kit can lay flat. I paid $1200.

lambo doors look like **** on a camaro and this is why...

if you look at your car from the driver/passanger side fenders,doors (or if you know your car enough in your head without looking at it) picture this.....do you know exactly where your mirrors are? well take a good look at the curves where you mirror is, and where your door is....now picture that door going up. Thats right....your hafto shave that whole mirror part off in order for the door to go up and out...and once you take away that slick design of the mirror's looking like they are built into the body, it looks like ***. Just picture a gap there

This thread seems to pop up every 3 months with 99.7% of you guys saying it's rice and it looks like ****, I think lambo doors look bad *** on vettes and f-bods. Now when I say lambo doors i mean the kit that goes straight up like a real freakin lambhorgini




The kits I normally see on maros and fbirds are the vertical doors style kit or LSD door and etc, which kinda looks like butterfly style doors ( like on the SLR benz).

That must mean that 0.3% of F-body owners are really ricers at heart. 99.7% of ricer owners like them.

yah those lambos do look very good. Those are the only ones i have seen go straight up and down. In my opinion, if they dont go completly vertical....theres no point in getting them

My buddy has them on his tiburon and they go out, and up but are no where near what lambos should be. IMO those ones look like *** and they are a pain in the *** to get in and out with.

what brand is on that trans am??

The only thing that sucks about lambo doors in our cars is they are like 5 feet long, the doors in f-bodies are massive. You can check on camaroz28.com theres a guy I think his name is like jrnp10 or something like that, his lambo doors came out mint.
