Default GS400 Lamborghini Doors

Do they exist for a 98 GS400? If so, does anyone know where they can be purchased from? I remeber a lot of threads back someone did it to their GS. The GS was painted blue with crazy airbrushing detail on it, from what I can remember. If anyone knows, please let me know. Thanks.

Landarc,

There is a VERY high chance that if you remember it, you can find it with search

Try searching for keyword 'lambo door' on the GS forum and you'll find a lot of threads.

Here's a link to get you started...

I'm afraid I going to have to agree with the other members. Please don't.

Lambo doors are called Lambo doors for a reason. They go on Lamborghinis, not Lexus, and IMO look better of them too.

Think about it, for the price of the doors you could get coilovers, which would do wonders for you handleing and looks. Plus people will see the effects of coilovers everytime they see your car. They will only see the doors when your getting in or out.

But it's completely up to you. Do what you like because it's your car and I'm sure ALL MOST everyone on CL will be understanding of that.

Though I'm not in favor of it, the thread did ask where to get them so here is a link
Lambo Door Kit

Goodluck

Once the Lambo style gets old, what's next for the full custom group, Gull wing doors or suicide rear doors? Each to his own, but not for me.

I agree that Lambo doors look nice on exotic 2-door sports cars...some of them anyway. They don't look right on 4-door luxury cars. Just down-right tacky on a 4-door Lexus or Merc or a Bentley or a Maybach.
