MisterSheen Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Don't bother removing mine next month - fed up with them now! Great for show, crap for practicality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Animal Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Have a search, this has been discussed before. I think the IDEA of lambo doors is better than the reality. On the right car, and done well, they can look good. Most of the time they just look awful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Supra Adam Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 used to love them but think they are a bit old hat now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adnanshah247 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Don't bother removing mine next month - fed up with them now! Great for show, crap for practicality Exactly that, look good when opening etc. but after a while your arm will begin to hurt constantly lifting them up and down.

bodilx6 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Lambo doors are for lambos. Thats it. Kind of the same thing as fitting a roof scoop. Kinda ricer. But hey, to a tricked our show car it might be good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Prepare yourself for a flogging. I was considering doing this myself and post up an opinions threat and got torn apart for it lol. Good luck. Personally i think they look pretty good IMHO. But hey thats just mine opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraRider Posted March 30, 2009 Author Share Posted March 30, 2009 haha!! lol, this picture just said it, it does kinda look embarrassing if you have a lambo in front of you and your door suddenly goes up where theirs go out! ok folks, no lambo doors for me! and yes quite chav I must say, should stay true to our supra roots. agree? http://www.allfordmustangs.com/photopost/data/3243/Lambo-Doors-So-Played-Out.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kopite Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Don't like them personally, if you like them then go for it BUT I wouldn't want to be in a crash with retrofitted lambo doors... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AJI Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 is it any worth getting lambo doors for your supe? does anybody have an opinion? If you think its worth getting lambo doors, can you recommend a website for me please? will be keen to know how much this will cost as well. I think they are an utter waste of time. You end up with shoddy looking doors that look like they belong on a different car, you have the extra weight for the fixings. the waste of money fitting them etc. etc. Maybe once in a time they were considerd different and 'original', but after seeing some fitted on cars they tend to look VERY CHAVy and cheap. Don't ruin a good Supra by fitting such 'doors'. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra_aero Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Think it looks ok on certain cars. Don't think it suits a supra tbh. Rx7 and nsx's yes as they are smaller profile sports cars and can get away with it (and somewhat look like they could've come with them as standard as they are rare cars - most people have never seen their doors open!).

The Raven Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 If i wanted even more hate for my car i would fit them and a V side rear spoiler. But i fear i would be banned from the owners club Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lbm Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 You must remember the "Actually, I do feel a bit of a tit trying to get out of this car" thing, everywhere you go and everytime you park. My advice then, if you must do this ridiculous, preposterous, embarassing and shameful thing - Always take two large brown paper bags. One for you and one for your Mrs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nic Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Supra doors are long and heavy, every conversion I have seen the hinges have not been able to take the weight and turning force of the doors and have sagged. They also look sh*t IMO, spend your money on something worth while. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
creative Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 lambo doors are past it now..... but I have yet to see a car with dihedral synchro-helix aka raptor doors that are fitted to Koenigsegegegeggggeeee's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcAB10 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 IMO they look very tacky and don't suit the supra at all, it's far too big to pull it off. There are heaps of better 'mods' that you could use your money on. I hate a car trying to be something else (a lambo in this case) when the car itself is awsome as it is, it doesn't need to be anything different.

However much you like them, you're going to regret it if you're upside down with the car on fire or in water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tails Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 im also not to gone on them, however gullwing ftw! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Massey Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Spot on. However much you like them, you're going to regret it if you're upside down with the car on fire or in water. Why????? They still open outwards enough And all car doors are hard to open in water due to the pressure so whats the difference???? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marcAB10 Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Why????? They still open outwards enough And all car doors are hard to open in water due to the pressure so whats the difference???? Because your still increasing the chance the door might not open far enough, also the chance that the hinge might fail after a bump/crash.

The same can be said for normal doors. if on a side impact the door gets caught on the wing it will be harder to open. http://www.lsddoors.com/uk/ was taken from this website http://www.profusioncustoms.com/services/lambo.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
