Lambo doors not gull wing. Gull wing would have thought you'd have to cut the roof and weld to the doors. Roof would have to be strengthened to take the weight lots of work but would look cool as owt

I like lambo Doors on a lambo....

Any other car there just sh*t...... But could have done with them on my old cup at my old house... Would have made it alot easier to get in & out of the small single garage... I used to push it in & out as could hardly open the doors.

i used to spend a lot of time in a bodyshop with a friend who ran it, a guy brought his civic in which had a lambo door kit fitted wanting it resprayed. me and my mate had a play with them as had discussed them due to the nature of his work, he had people asking him to fit kits ect. after looking at the civic he told people straight no when they asked about them.

it's hard to explain how they felt but we were both worried about things distorting/twisting or generally breaking something while opening or closing the door.

i really do think the 5 doors are the wrong shape, size and weight for this type of conversion.

I have to admit that, in a tight parking space, they make a lot of sense. The question is, are you more embarrassed to throw open your Lambo style door or dislocate your hip to get out the car?..... .....Dislocated hip for me please. :D
