Actually,the aventador and sesto elemento both have scissor doors.There using them again...:th_thumbsup-wink:

The difference is a 100k+ exotic.. Can pull it off and I can guarantee you the hinge set up cost more then a $1000 and they have the power as well as the style to pull it off.

no warning, it just blew while he was getting in the car, took two guys to open the door and get his hand free...luckily it happened at a car show

so he paid nearly 1500$ to lose two fingers less than 6 months later

go for it....or put that 1500$ into some maint/repairs or a trans rebuild fund

ouch! I guess he didn't have the proper kits that have two struts per door, one for a back up. poor guy :/

The only lambo I can think of that doesnt have them (from the Countach and up is the Gallardo and the Future Huracan... all the others do! :) I know people who put lambo doors on the gallardo......stupidest thing ever HA

he did. the problem is that the two is needed for heavy doors...because they split the weight...when one failed the other couldn't hold the door and it slammed closed.

if they did make a double strut design where each strut would hold the door open by itself youd have to pull downward on the door with 100+lbs of force to close it with em both fighting you.

the best design are the torsion/spring designs but those require the A pillar and firewall structure

All this "lambo door" talk makes me want to puke.

In texas go ahead with it.. They do some crazy **** that wouldn't work anywhere else.

Me too...

Im not geting Lambo doors everyone :) I figure 1500$ could go towards WAY better mods as someone said I could get turbocharge kit if I wanted too. The lambo doors seem kind of not worth it. I wont even think about doing it unless I had a lot of money, even then I still dont think i would do it. I have a lot of other mod ideas in my head that I will share with Y'all in another thread. :) I appreciate everyone's opinions on this "rice or spice" matter. Seems 95% say no... Because the GTP is one of my favorite cars, I wouldnt want to do something that destroys its reputation. lolz

Live on Pontiac!

Let me explain how door hinge kits work, those are bolt on, which cost more, but the 1500$ is because of the installation price. it costs around 500 to 700$ to get it installed. so yes, around 1500$ you never buy a kit that is less than 1000$ unless you can find that kit for cheap but originally costs that much. Hope this made since haha. In short, yes it would cost around 1500$

this thread is still going? WTF drop this ****
