Re: Vertical doors

Before you do this, is your car a daily driver or a weekend joy? The doors are quite heavy and just like any hinges, excessive use will misalign and wear them out quick..but they are a great idea if you take it out every once in a while it looks badass i've seen a few here in Ga/Fla

Re: Vertical doors

i just got done puttin them on my car. took allmost a week to fab up the stuff to do it. it is no fun at all. Iam still getting them right. pm me for pics ill send them out. U have to chop up the inner fender good. Then you run into the problem of opening the door out beacuse ur fender is in the way. Then when u lift it up u have to chop that peace that matches the fender with the mirror off beacust it hits bad. All and All NOT WORTH IT!

Sadly the reason the Camaro hardly has an apearance aftermarket.

You know, I mostly dislike lambo doors on just about anything but that pic looks pretty cool. Regardless of the PITA it might have been, nice job.

Re: Vertical doors

i dont like the kits that make the doors flare outwards. the better ones imo are the kits that make the doors go straight up at 90 degrees.

Re: Vertical doors

This is hands down the absolute best Lambo door kit on the market. Watch the little video:
