Default Close up of the hinge of a lambo door SC (plus other pics)

SO me and a few friends went to SlamFest in Tampa today (massive car show with 500+ cars). And low and behold the infamous orange SC with lambo doors was there. So heres a few pics I got of it







It wasnt too bad. There was just so many little things...like missing weatherstripping, missing a speaker or two, some stains/scratches, etc.

I was real interested in the hinge system on the door, and it looked decent

To check out the rest of the pics (including the bikini show pics) look for my thread in The Clubhouse

what's up with the carpet? did he just lay it down over the factory carpeting?

The hinge seems to be a hack job -- it's not painted to match the car @ the bottom or anything.


Ah well, to each his own.

THAT little thing holds that door?

No thank you.


SupraC, look at the dash itself, all blotted and spotted. That car seems to be ballin' on a budget.

ha ha ha ha ha, why are people so in love with cupholders?????? I'll never understand that, maybe because I don't eat or drink in my car. I've heard that in other countries Americans are laughed at because of their love of cupholders and their insistance that each and every car they buy must have a cupholder. I just find it funny that something so insignificant gets so much attention. "Oh no, I don't have a cupholder, what am I gonna do?!" ha ha ha...

The shocks are $30 U.S.? I need a new set, it seems both of mine are gone, if anyone knows a good place in Toronto to get them (either than the dealership) give me a pm.

The cupholder is not really functional. I think it more finishes the car by filling in that ridiculous hole.
