Default Good kits for lambo doors on 08 tc

I just got my 08 tc. I have always been a fan of the lambo doors but after doing some research I am guess again. From what I herd the kits arent that good and having the doors is more of a pain in the A$$ then anything. So I was going to ask if better kits have been made for lambo doors and how much they might coast, plus instalation.

The thread title is an oxymoron.

oxymoron-a figure of speech by which a locution produces an incongruous, seemingly self-contradictory effect, as in “cruel kindness” or “to make haste slowly.”

Go with the LSD kit. Vertical doors.com sucks major major *****. I sold mine for the LSD

In my opinion I think all lambo kits are good as long as you take care of it and take all the time you need to set it up so that it has a perfect fit. That also requires shaving the hinges and the fenders or even changing the side frame just a tad bit.

Its a real big point winner at shwos and with people so do it right my good friend!

Don't go lambo doors. . You'll get the same attention I give to 95 civics with unpainted, cracked body kits....which you don't want to know. The tC should stay a tC, unless you want to forever be called 'poser.' If you want lambo doors, buy a lambo.

Well he makes a pretty strong point, I guess itl be like a honda trying to get TRD racing seats. But I still do like the looks of lambo doors on a tc. More so if the tc has a kit because then it looks hot.

Just like most of the more out-there mods, Lambo Doors look great but aren't for a Daily Driver car.

X2.

But if you like them go for it, no one is stopping you. I personally only like lambo doors if the car is up for it.

This all came about because my sisters husband is stupid rich and has a orange lambo. I always loved how the doors on the lambo open. I think the TC looks pretty good with them on too. Problem is I really don't want any problems or regret . From what I read off this site, it seemed that there was no good kit.

The LSD kits is good because it is made out of stainless steal and uses a lot of rollers to help the door come out and up and also has a gas shock made specifically for the TC. Verticaldoors.com is a crappy hunk of medal that rides against itself as it goes up and starts to rust in about a week even if it does not get wet. Iv had my LSD kit for almost a year with no problems. Because of the gas shock the door sags a little in the 30 degree weather of winter. but i try not to drive my tc in winter anyways.
