i found a website with kits for gull wing doors. www.aerokits.nrt . The door is like a lambo but has a slant to it as you can see.

Gullwing door not found. That's just a lambo door that flips out a bit. Gullwing doors to me are the ones found on the Mercedes and Delorean.

yea what they said.. that is just a modified version of a lambo door.. . a true gull wing design are those found on the dalorean car... not exactly something that can be done to must cars since the roof has to support the door. not to mention it would be impossible for a thidgen or similar car where there is no structure at the top of the window that is part of the door itself

if they made a kit where the doors would come out like the pic above - instead of straight up like the current kits for our cars....I'd probably make the investment

That looks even more pointless than lambo doors.

Pretty soon people will be installing doors that twirl 360* on the way up.
