lambo doors are on a lambo for a reason.... If you want lambo doors... Buy a lambo.

Think it looks horrible on a GS.... A GS is a classy car... And lambo doors just make it look cheap IMO..

But its ur car.

I have them on mine and they look great. They are also a huge attention getter. Yeah the Lexus is a classy car but gimmie a break putting a different door doesn't make it look any less classy hell almost every other car has a door that opens the exact same way so its not like the doors make the Lexus classy a Honda Civic has doors that open just like the ones on a stock Lexus. Check out some of my posts and you will see how they look on my car.

To each his own. It is not for me since I don't compete on a show car level. Even if I did show, then this mod probably wouldn't be a priority for me. Just my 2 cents.

i've seen them on automan's GS and IMO i dont think they look too bad. They are definitely something for show which isn't what my GS is aimed for but if you wanna get heads turning, they'll def. get the attention for you.

i personally think they belong on two door cars but as long as they are done right, they don't look too bad on a GS.

wheres the "theyre ugly on any car but lambo and other cars that come with them built in already" option. i think theyre okay on the SLR and lambos.. the OG benz gullwing is pimp... but these aftermarket civics and even FD's and other sportscars shouldnt have lambo doors. they look cheesy and are rice IMO

Buy a Lambo you say.... Ok there Mr. "i have 300k to throw on a car", can you spare me a Lambo since you have so much money and still drive a GS?

whoa there soldier, he's entitled to his own opinion and so are you. let's try and stay on topic here.

btw, bill gates could probably buy about 100 lambos yet he still drives around his SC430.

This is your first post ...a knock on a CL member

why not post an introduction or show pics of your cars instead of knocking a member

i welcome everyone but you need to put that attitude in check

he expressed his opinion the same way you did and the same way I am,

but we are all family here first

i hope you learn that .....and welcome to CL

Not to jack your thread or anything......but there has to be someone out there who has tried 'suidide doors' on their GS. Although still not for me, I think the look would be outrageously slick.
