Has anyone tried putting suicide doors on the XB? Do you think it would be a good idea to try it out? I personally think that it might just look alright. Let me know.

Let me know. stickler64 12-23-2004, 07:51 PM I've been interested too. dgHotLava 12-23-2004, 08:04 PM in the works.... http://www.scionlife.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=342926&highlight=#342926 k2kid 12-23-2004, 08:07 PM How much is it going to cost? It doesn't look like such a good idea after looking at the link. Maybe I'll just hold off until I see more successful attempts at it. hotbox05 12-23-2004, 10:57 PM i so wanna do it. the idea has been floating around for awhile . it will be very sweet looking. cost is gonna be hard to say since labor rates are different everywhere u go. but yeah. i cant wait . i should have it done within the year(hopefully) sexyscionlover 12-23-2004, 11:49 PM yea right now it needs so much refinement its ridiculous. i believe it's shawns black xB that has suicides and supposedly is very hard to get into if you're bigger. i wouldnt personally try to fab up anything because i wouldnt want to mess up seals or functionality. just wait for a complete bolt on kit to come out that is worthy of the near $1000 price tag BlueBoxer 12-24-2004, 01:18 AM I'm a dumb@$$ had the wrong type of doors. Sorry! rollotomassi 12-24-2004, 01:41 AM :? Those are called "scissor" doors or "Lambo" doors. What is being attempted is a "suicide" door conversion where the hinges are relocated to the rear of the door.

Has anyone done it? BoomBox757 03-20-2005, 03:33 PM someone tried doing on the rear, and, I don't remember which, but it would either not close all the way or not open more than a little bit eburgsspeedyxb 03-20-2005, 03:48 PM yeah, I want to do the rear doors, obviously I'm sure there's some fabrication to be done. But the smart move will be to just wait. Not like I don't have 5 1/2 years of payments left. badbasic 03-20-2005, 06:24 PM pm matchbox. he has a company fabbing a set for his. it is the same company that fabbed his lambo doors K_Dawg_ONE 03-22-2005, 10:32 PM Anyone have matchbox's email? |
