Imperial 07-26-2008, 10:41 AM Don't knock them just coz you can't afford them.
TylerC08 07-26-2008, 10:55 AM Don't knock them just coz you can't afford them.
I'm glad I can't afford them.
Not a fan of the tails but I can afford those. :P
Overall clean rs3.
davedavetC 07-26-2008, 10:56 AM pffft i can afford them and i still dont/wont have them.
Imperial 07-26-2008, 10:59 AM To each his own, I like them and that's what counts. The tails come standard on the RS3.
TylerC08 07-26-2008, 11:03 AM The tails come standard on the RS3.
Yeah, that's what I thought but if it helps I hate my '08 tails too.
Imperial 07-26-2008, 11:04 AM I actually love my tails... I like how the turn signal lights are red instead of the standard amber you'll find on the accessory version.
nauticac 07-26-2008, 12:44 PM I like the RS3 tails. I'll trade you for stock 06's? haha.
KINGxOFxSKA 07-26-2008, 02:23 PM Just because someone doesn't like lambo doors you have to justify that as them not being able to afford it? :loser:
Don't be cocky because of your door hinges.
iheartzombies 07-26-2008, 02:44 PM Not my cup o tea but the lip kit looks nice
Scott8 07-26-2008, 03:35 PM did VD inc put them on your car?
nebster 07-26-2008, 04:49 PM side note: did you get every trd accessory available?
Imperial 07-26-2008, 05:20 PM I don't mind some people not liking lambo doors, but if their gonna be a b*tch about it, then so will I.
Yes, VDI did the install.
Yes I have all the TRD parts.
Scott8 07-26-2008, 05:21 PM how much it cost all together with install?
Imperial 07-26-2008, 05:22 PM $1,661.29
nebster 07-26-2008, 05:26 PM wow.... thats rediculous man!!!!!
props i guess for spending the money on a mod like that but to me its not worth it
Imperial 07-26-2008, 05:28 PM LOL! Thanks, I get the same reaction about all my TRD parts.
Scott8 07-26-2008, 05:29 PM at least they installed it correctly.
I had lambos from VDI but I got rid of them since my car is a DD and the shocks crapped out under 6 months from all the opening and closing. keep an eye on the shocks and get a new set before the 6 month warranty runs out
nebster 07-26-2008, 05:30 PM yeah i'm not a fan of the trd parts. they're just rebadged parts that they charge a fortune for. decent parts but for the dollar you could do better. EITHER WAY looks good
$1600!!!! HOLY SHT!
overall it looks good to me
Imperial 07-26-2008, 05:32 PM Thanks Scott8, I'll certainly keep that in mind.
Scott8 07-26-2008, 05:39 PM Thanks Scott8, I'll certainly keep that in mind.
at least you can go to the shop. I am in the midwest so it was all phone calls and emails to get it taken care of
Imperial 07-26-2008, 05:41 PM It's a good 1 hour drive with some traffic but I hear ya.
Dakine 07-26-2008, 06:00 PM ehh... the end.
datdude1119 07-26-2008, 06:56 PM that looks fresh!
MiniGuy 07-26-2008, 07:06 PM What a blatant waste of money... research research research and for goodness sake, do it yourself... only respectable way to do it. Anyone with money to blow can get it done for them, and waste hundreds, if not thousands along the way.
I got my JTautostyle hinges (identical design and great quality) and installed them on my tC for less than half that overinflated cost. VDI charges WAY too much for their setup and install, not to mention the rediculous cost of the TRD parts all over.
So sad to see...
Don't mind the look of vertical doors, just hate seeing people naively paying out the nose for things that just plain aren't worth the price.
Cheaper, Better, Faster, and Do it yourself, or Don't do it at all.
Good ol' PT Barnum - A Sucker Born Every Minute.
BrownDogg 07-26-2008, 07:11 PM Don't knock them just coz you can't afford them.
I can afford them very easily and I think they are very ricey and cheap looking. The first picture says it all. PLAYED OUT!
Now all you need is some spinners to go along with those lambo doors
Imperial 07-26-2008, 07:26 PM They only charged $100 for the installaion which normally costs $4-500. I don't pretend to know more than I do so no, installing it myself wouldn't have been a good option. Why do it myself when I can afford to have someone do it for me and do it right? Path of least resistance.
Imperial 07-26-2008, 07:29 PM I earned the money and I'll wipe my ___ with it if I want to. Would it bother you any more to know I had ALL my TRD parts dealer installed?
jsingh 07-26-2008, 07:29 PM i don't know why i think the passenger door does'nt look right!!
but i want the vertical doors..
:)
Nick06tC 07-26-2008, 07:40 PM Im not a fan. But I give props for doing it right. Buying the best and having it dont correctly. Something I agree, do it yourself, but something as important as this install, $100 is well worth it!!!
Sure beats trying to be cheap about it and 2 months later paying to have ti fixed.
So good work, but still dont like them. But oh well!
NOT_JDM 07-26-2008, 08:45 PM riccceeeeeeeeeeeee
tcCALI 07-26-2008, 08:48 PM Don't knock them just coz you can't afford them.
you so silly.
Astoria 07-26-2008, 09:32 PM i kinda like the grill. or is that just a whole new bumper
tcCALI 07-26-2008, 09:33 PM i kinda like the grill. or is that just a whole new bumper
its what comes on the RS3.
Scott8 07-26-2008, 09:40 PM I miss opening my doors at gas stations and everyone looking over like "wtf!"
I also had mine on in 05, so not a ton of tC's had them.
Elijahtc 07-26-2008, 10:30 PM the doors are just a phase ricers go through before they figure out what a real import is supposed to look like: Simple and clean.
hawgs74 07-26-2008, 11:46 PM the doors are just a phase ricers go through before they figure out what a real import is supposed to look like: Simple and clean.
Is that why u have a SE decal on your "nebster approved ride?" :silly:
Do u also tickle his balls while you pleasure him?
nebster 07-26-2008, 11:49 PM hawgs you have no room to talk about rice lol
tclicious 07-26-2008, 11:57 PM Hmmm well of what I've heard "not my opinion or experience " kits from 200-2000, they are all the same stuff. like eBay to vertical inc. ppl have said that it all matters of how you install it, that what make it count and worth what you paid for. I don't have custom doors, just sharing information of people i know who has them. but in my opinion, if there is no difference of the products... which i dont know if there is, paying over a grand or two for them is ridiculous. for two grand i think i would want my doors to open & close automatically with a remote "out, up, then down, close." lol
highvoltage1 07-27-2008, 12:23 AM well i like the RS3 but i wouldnt put lambos on it. But hey you like them so thats cool. I hate the TYC's. Stockies or Anzo's FTW!!
krazyscion 07-27-2008, 02:08 AM nice RS3

i have an SE decal on my car cause i am part of the largest Scion exclusive club internationally. Nebster didn't have a problem with it. Not like i have decals all over my car. just one to rep what i am a part of.
hookedonlucy 07-27-2008, 07:02 AM holy moly
1600 for that POS and all trd parts installed at the dealership!?
goodness gracious. you could be at 800whp with that kinda money.
tC_andy07 07-27-2008, 08:24 AM haters are everywhere...
tCtCtC 07-27-2008, 08:32 AM to many emblems on the back, the doors are meh

E i think BALLS was referring to the one on your rear window...
and for the record... those arent there anymore
:nope:
my .02 for the thread...
if you have been on SL for, oh i dont know, 2 minutes...
you will find out that those who post pictures of vertical/lambo doors will get no love
SengTC3 07-27-2008, 08:52 AM As long as it makes you happy bro. In the end its going to be your car and you driving it, so make it the way you like it and ignore the haters.

yeah sometimes u get these guys on here that think they know what they are talking bout and really have no clue. he prolly wants lambo doors and is too afraid to get them cause people will make fun of him.
and just FYI, i don't need anyone's approval on what i do to or have done to my car. i love it and i get a LOT of respect from people that don't even like Scions. I place at pretty much every car show i go to (even in the top 50 of a 300 car, hot rod show. if i can get hot rods guys respect when they are all bout being AMERICAN made, i don't give a crap what u think)

Nick06tC 07-27-2008, 09:19 PM civics doors are much lighter than tc's. tc's must have the heaviest doors in the world like for real.
I agree. Have you ever opened your door and looked at the spot where the hinge (normal hinges) attach to the body of the car. You can see the body flex out!!!
nebster 07-27-2008, 09:19 PM naw thats a freaking myth. the turbo takes a lot more money than 3-4k

coryjames 07-27-2008, 10:27 PM lol ima get a new ride soon to lol
As much as I despise "Lambo Doors" and whenever I see them I think of that first picture... It is in fact your car, and you can overspend however much money you want on it...I just hope your $1600 kit doesn't ruin your fender and doors like so many before, who spent $250 all the way to $1600, because the tC's doors are the heaviest doors in all the land as far as the eye can see....
BTW, how do you like your Big Brake Kit, I am possibly getting one. Did it come with the rear disc's as well?
CDogbert 07-27-2008, 10:42 PM I, personally, would never ever put a vertical door kit on a tC. Our doors are heavier than most things pulled in an Iron Man competition; I can't imagine putting all that weight on a tiny hydraulic is very... healthy.
You know what I want to see? A sliding door kit.

you wouldn't be referring to that car that was on eBay a while back with the doors that slide under the car to open them?
CDogbert 07-27-2008, 10:50 PM you wouldn't be referring to that car that was on eBay a while back with the doors that slide under the car to open them?
No, I mean like minivan-style.

Im the same with you, too many haters on this site. Actually too many people to far up their own ___ to know what looks good. I'm actually gonna be gettin me a set, but wont post pics on here because of too many immature people yelling out rice because my car isnt or doesnt look like theirs. Funny thing is the ones that typically say they dont like something are the ones who feel the need to post whore every thread on SL. Geesh people get a life and stop hating so much.

Okay. This is stupid.
While I agree that there are a small niche of people who could do with a rectalobotomy on this site... seriously people, it's a discussion forum. If you need someone jacking you off for validation's sake every time you do something to reassure yourself that you're not a complete retard, you've come to the wrong place.
Kanchi 07-27-2008, 11:13 PM ...sigh hopelessly off topic and full of people posting their negative .02 like they matter :loser: Be nice guys we all are proud of our cars, no need to be rude, if you don't like it don't post. Hope that is simple enough to understand!
