Thumbs down The official LAMBO DOORS ARE PLAYED thread

Guys, look, its already BAD, we got Lambo doors on cars that are not Lambos. Even on sedans. And I cannot lie, it was cool maybe 2 years ago, right before EVERYONE thought it was cool to add.

But today, its LAME. Don't do it. Its old. Played. Ridiculous. And after seeing every car possible with them at NOPI, it just confirms, the gene pool could use some chlorine.

Some of the doors don't fit right, they don't go up all the way, and why have a STOCK car or interior for all to see, with LAMBO doors??


I mean, do what you do. But, IMO, you get the

I wholeheartedly agree. My friend's brother put lambo doors on his Civic coupe and they fit like crap, the door does not line-up as good as it did when it was stock, and they hand to bend part of the fender to get it to close without problems. It's absurd if you ask me, it ruined the car!

i actually like the lambo doors if put on a 2 door car..
i really really dont like them o a 4 door car (1 exception i saw at nopi)
but other than that i think they are ok.. i mean if done PROPELY..
i got people in my club who doors fit just as good and line up perfectly.. but you always got people doing it the cheap way and puttin bad anme on it.

In the beginning when not many people had it there was a WOW factor. It was unique and different and I admired the work, although I would never do this to my car. But now that everyone has it, it is played out.
