Do a search in the forums BLTC, there are several tC with
virt doors, with lots of photos in the threads.

I think it's rather cool, but because kits are out there (About
$1200 if I remember from reading threads) they are starting
to get done out!

Not to mention safety issues, and the fact that after it's done
you have very little room to get in and out of your car!

there have been warnings of sagging issues of fenders. And due to the lack of productivity of scions parts and the durability of them. I would believe it's true. I mean sh*t you want lambo doors be my guest , i was gonna get them. But i'd rather save my money ! Hinges would run ya like 1200-1600 (good ones).

Lambo Doors = Total Gayness. They only look good on a Lambo. I don't like cross breeding of cars.

Ok heres the thing about Lambo doors, If you plan on doing them, i would suggest you go all out on your tC and compete in shows for the rest of your life, because lambo doors to me are just for show. People do these kind of things like, rare widebody kits, neon lights, dvds, dvd screens everwhere, lambo doors, etc. just for show and usally judges go for these kind of things. Again if any of you guys out thinking of going lambo doors go all out and compete in shows! and good luck not that u need it, cause i gaurantee that you'll at least win some kind of a reward.

I saw one at a car show with lambo doors. Looked effin awesome. Practical for everyday use? Not so much. I agree with DevoTek, if you get them you should go all out and nake your tC a show car. I have considered them cause it looked so awesome, but for the price (1200 to 1600) and the headaches it could cause with the fit, its just not worth it.

i like lambo doors on some cars. the tc, it would look just about right. one thing i dont like about the stock doors on the tc is that they open real wide. i almost hit a car parked next to me when i was trying to get something in the back seat. if you are gonna go lambo doors on the tc, you need to get them all the way up, not just part way up. that way you can get in easier. bad thing i can think of is if you were to roll over the tc, you pretty much fukced. i dont think lambo doors just belong to lambos. its just another style for opening the doors. its like saying the first car that came with a sunroof is the only car that should have a sunroof. or the first car that came with cruise control should be the only one with cruise control.

To be honest with you, around in the VA area, I have NEVER seen lambo doors' on a car.

I've only seen them AT car shows.
