i was thinking about it, but defintitly go with the direct bolt on kit, rather than the weld on kit. It might me more money but at least its reversible, and the weld kits never seem to line up correctly. Im still thinking about doing the lambo kit but getting other things done first. I'd do it!

could u give me ur address if u decide to get lambo doors so i can go and bash ur GS up with a baseball bat nicely to match the door

IMO lambo doors are only good on a lambo
nothing else should have lambo doors
btw there are seal issues with these doors most of the time too

Well, if your going to modify your car, you should make it your own and if you want lambo doors when your 18 because you can't afford a real lambo yet then go for it. You can't tell me the doors on this car does not look sweet http://videos.streetfire.net/search/...769adc3e47.htm ,personally the doors are the only thing that i like on this car though. Haha

Lambo doors are one of those things that only look good if the entire car is done right. "Automan" has his done right, and it looks fantastic. The majority of the GS owners on here don't agree with that statement, but I think it fits his ride well. Plus, the way he has his setup, it's not really too expected. It also helps that he has an immaculate paint job...

Automans is the only GS I have seen with Lambo doors that looks clean.

Lambo Doors = Lamborghini

For me, it would depend on what else is done to the car to make the doors blend in. I wonder if anyone is thinking about shaving the door handles, installing door poppers, and then doing suicide rear doors.

i think that if you do lambo doors, you really have to go all out. i'm talking outrageous like the car in the first post. that car looked like the owner had gone all out and the only thing left was the lambo door conversion to help it win shows if it wasn't already winning.

if you do just lambo doors on a stock gs... yeah- it's gonna look pretty weak. you'll definitely have to do the drop, wheels, maybe a diff hood, definitely a body kit, and maybe some interior mods like swapping out the seats to race seats.

also, for some reason, to me, it looks better on dark cars than lighter cars.

I watched it again, i agree the paint is "clean", but im am not a fan of the trible section up near the windows. But i do love the lambos i have this video saved to my favorites,i watch it quite a bit.
