I think the look is outdated and kinda cheesy. Just my opinion though.

Like I mentioned, It's just my opinion. Maybe the majority still like the Lambo door kits but I'm over it.

Yeah, pricey and alot of work getting everything lined up correctly. But I guess if it's something you'd like to do then just do it. It's your car in the end and that's all that matters. Your car is an extension of yourself and should reflect your personality. Others may not agree with your choices or taste but that's why they have a car of they're own.

Yes and there is a reason why they don't have them. The look doesn't suit our cars very well.

The only car that should have "Lambo" doors is a 1985 Lamborghini Countach.

Is this another one of those mods that you wanna do ONLY because no one else has it, and you'll be unique?

Unique does not mean it'll look good.

Definitely something that will draw attention.They would be putting that kit to the test with the weight of our doors.

I always liked the "gullwing" doors, although on our cars that just wouldn't work. And i agree the Lambo doors are something you would see only on a lambo or a riced up honda. With that being said i vote you fab up something to do suicide doors, now that would be more unique and possibly easier.

If you truly want something different reverse the lambo doors , call it suicide lambo doors.

Suicide doors wouldn't be a bad idea.


Definitely cheaper than Lambo doors.

lame dont do it, the meme is true

GTAman 11-14-2012 10:08 PM

Re: recomend doing this?
 
i wouldn't do it on our cars for 2 reasons: 1) just doesn't look right and 2) the doors are very heavy because, when they're closed, they complete the weak unibody bracing. The weight of the doors alone is a deterrent from modifying anything.
