It is a neat idea but I would be embarrassed to open my doors in a parking lot.

I mean I would feel like an *** if I pulled into my dentist's parking lot and had to open my doors like that and then get out.

The ones that open up like normal and then have the ability to swing up are a lot cool than the butterfly wing effect you have to do because of the side mirrors on most F-Bodies.

Default lambo info

I have seen a few Camaro/Firebird door kits in person and have helped install one as well...


1. Lambo doors are kewl; don't be afraid to stray away from the flock!

2. The shock allows you to open/close the heavy door with ease.

3. It is not hard to get in and out of the car with these unless you are 300+ pounds, but in that case it would be hard anyway.

4. If you install them properly and buy a kit that is specifically for an F-body there won't be an improper gap. And if you do the proper fender/mirror body work to the Camaro which the manual will tell you to do then there won't be a gap there either

5. I personally like the "V shaped" lambo doors better

I think they look good when they are done right. The main benefit is that we have huge doors and if you have them you dont have to worry about hitting things with them.
