WeDriveScions and NiclZ what brand kits do you guys have? I know that cheap ebay lambo kits are cheap becuase their CHEAPLY made. I want to get them for my car. So far i got $1200 saved up for them. I'm thinking of getting the kit from Vertical doors inc. I seen other brands and don't like what i seen in thier vid ads. I'm only looking at brands that have videos showcasing thier products. So see how they operate. VD, Inc shows a female model opening the doors and the door leftying them selves. Not like other brands that i seen that show male lefting the door himself. Plus if u look closey thier having a hard time lefting the door. It shows in thier faces. So Any one how got lambo doors what brands do you have? Pros and Cons. I'm lucky i get a free install at my job when i buy them.

You absolutely must not go with the VDI doors and must pick up the JTAUTOSTYLE.com doors, which are what BOTH I and the other ride have.... They sell for around 800 shipped and lift exactly the same as the VDI and are of great quality.... I tried out both at the SE kickoff show last month and was super impressed with the JT autostyle and was even more when I heard the price...

Most of us here on Scionlife are going the JT direction, I can assure you they're not tough to lift and open just as much or further than the VDI setup.

Here's pics of my install...

Yo are the JT auto style doors bolt on, or do they needed to be welded and the frame shaped?

The JT doors are bolt on and adjustable... No welding or shaping is required... you do need to modify the inside of the fender for hinge clearance (Cutting).... but every kit needs that.

Calling them up is the best way... They're cool.... I know they're not aluminum... they're pretty hefty and weight way more than what aluminum would... I'm sure they'd be able to tell you the steel and such...

Call them up yesterday from work. They told me $900 for the tC kit. Either way 800-900 is still cheaper then VDI kit that runs about 1600. They told me thier made from steanless steel and are Grade "A". I'm alomst convised. Can't wait to get my tC in 4 months to get the JT kit. I can see it know from the dealer, to take falimy out to eat, to the body shop to start work on the tC.

Ah!you don't have your tC yet!
Do not make the Lambo Doors your first mod....
The doors on a stock tC look terrible.

Rims, drop, bodykit, doors =)

lambo doors suck
dont put them on a scion or any other car period!!
when the doors are open you can see how flimsy they are

lambo doors only look good on one car-Automobili Lamborghini

Just got another trophy yesterday and about 100+ people were like "Wow!, how did you do that, it's awesome...."

So, I have no qualms with them....

Although, the two Astin Martin Vanquish's there were my true "WOW"... (Most beautiful cars EVER made)

nah no tC yet. I can get it know but Insurance is going to kill me. If i wait until i turn 21 i'll pay 10-15% less. Plus i should make for money by then. Also i'll be doing other mods too. Doors, CAI, Extsut, Apply chipguard to all the underbody and install front and side OEM bodykit. Still looking for a better back BodyKit. If can't find them i'll just us the OEM one.
