Default Lamborghini doors or vertical doors

Hi,

I have just joined the club few days ago. I have a 2004 SC430 and i want to install the Lambo doors in it. Does anybody knows where I can buy it from? What is the cost? how relaiable is it? Did anybody tried it before?

Also I need to by the Navgation box which you insert the CD in as mine was not in the car when I bought it!! can I fit the 2006 box in my 2004 SC?

tahnks in advance.

sorry i have to do this



haha anyways, I've heard numerous people having complaints of the doors not aligning right or that the doors would get wobbly. the shocks itself tend to last only for a short period. Not sure what brands they used but consensus has been pretty much unanimous: lambo doors = unreliable

Hahahaha, that was a nice one pic. I rally thought all Lambo had the vertical doors!!

"lambo doors = unreliable" This is exactly what I heared from some friend but wanted to make sure. However, I still want to make my SC deferent than the others !!!

Lets see what others would say about the doors.

Not played out yet and NOT freaking vertical doors yucky. Get the right rated shocks and you won't have reliability issues. If anything get heavier duty ones it'll just be marginally harder to close the doors.

there are a lot of ways to make your car "different", but this is hardly one of them

to each their own of course

I'd like to see you drop by a Walmart in one of those. Maybe you could mod a trunk access/egress. nyuk, nyuk.

I was talking about the GT Factory Gullwing Door System as it is the first time to see it. I sow the Lambo doors in a golden SC in my area and it looked so cool but the driver had tuff time closing the door!!!
