Default Lambo Style Doors

Ok so I have a REALLY good opportunity on some brand new LSD doors. And with you fellas being so knowledgeable, I figure you could answer some questions for me if you don't mind....

The only problem is that my car is still under my parents name and such and they are kind of a stickler for warranty and resale type issues. jk

I know that the LSD doors require cutting of the fender do they not? How bad is that? Will it void any warranty or anything along those lines? I would do another kit that doesn't require cutting,but with the opportunity I have on these...thats not an option.

And if I ever need to go back to stock, is that an option? and will it be ok having cut the fender?

Thanks alot!

Don't do it dude. Waste your money on better mods like a drop and sway bars. You will not regret it.

Ok I forgot to mention I've already got drop, sway, tint, exaust, cai, glow, grile, HID's.

I know that they are way played out and I'll get bashed by tons of people for it being rice or ___ or this or that. Believe me if I had the retail price, I would be buyin other ____ besides some lambo doors! But I can get these things for $250 brand new from a guy who got them as a b-day present and doesn't want them and just needs cash.

So I figure that $250 for $1500+ worth of product is worth buying and reselling if anything! And I figured that they are a big attention getter and here in f**kin Arkansas there's not a whole lot of lambo doors so they are yet "played out".

Not all "lambo doors" cost 1500. Perhaps he got a cheap kit and the deal is not as good as you think. Either way I would stay away from them. The tC has extremely heavy doors and eventually your fenders will start to sag.

Oh ya well you can trust that I'll make damn sure that they are in fact quality Lambo Style Doors brand before I buy anything. He is actually a friend of a friend of mine. And my friends tC is so modded out that there is little that he could have left to do to it, so I consider him a pretty knowledgeable source you know? So ya I won't let myself get ripped!

I just wanted to know incase they DO turn out to be genuine and I buy them what exactly I'm lookin at in the install and such.

Do you still have the stock wheels? If so, save up some more cash and buy a nice set.

Plus they look ugly and warp the frame because the tC's doors are so heavy.

TRUE LSD kits can open in both directions...they have a 'switch' that allows them to open about 30 degrees...then UP if you choose. Which is a nice option that most kits dont offer

I wanted Lambo doors for a WOW factor at shows....but you'll spend more money in labor than what those kits are worth...

Got BUMP? I say spend the money on some I.C.E. like components/subs....or Sound Deadening...or paint/suede the interior...

Lambos are just too much trouble...waste your money on something else man, seriously.

I say do it! You know you want to drive with the doors up trying to get at all the ladies at the local hot spot! All while going WOT!

It's only $250 + labor, so why not? Doooo ittt!

I mean like i said, if they have the brand on the box and they are the real deal then i might just buy them for the $250 and resell them.
