I assume that it is because the way the weight of the door is distributed on the frame changes to pretty much straight down on the door frame as opposed to the original torsional forces being applied when the door is sitting on regular hinges. The area that the door mounts to is designed for the original torsional stresses, and the direct aplication of the weight of the door downwards can cause stress in the frame which leads to the fender gradually deforming, producing a sagging effect in your fenders.

This is one of the reasons a quality lambo kit will cost so much. It has to be designed to minimize this effect.

I think Lambo Doors on my wife's tC would be awesome, but on my 350z roadsster? now THAT's Pimp.

I agree with zac tho, I'd get the TRD supercharger for mt tC or the HKS supercharger w/ intercooler for my 350z.

I dont mind people voicing their opinion, just gets annoying when people use the word rice when the word itself has alot of meaning.

people have diff taste . When it comes to cars, music, clothes, cell phone etc.
If you dont like it then at least say why you dont like it

Its like me walking up to somebody that looks like white trash and calling him white trash. or walking up to a gothic person and calling him/her weirdo...

just my 2cents

Well how about this. It's not an exotic car, it's not even a "show" car. It's a Scion, just like a civic. Infact thoes doors look tacky on civics, corollas, sentras, lancers, all of them why would it look any better on our econo car?

It adds weight, hurts the car, doesn't improve looks much (in my opinion makes it worse), and costs to much money. This is the definition of rice.

what if the car was all fixed up and "show" quality? would it still be rice?

I think we need to just give up the word rice,

i agree that certain parts on cars i.e Exhaust pipes that have flames and lite up are retarded but somebody obviously liked them so who are we to be dicks and say rice,

WTF is Rice?

rice is the ____ you find at wal-mart that says "type-R" or "Nitrous"
when they sell lambo doors at wally world, PM me I still want them!
i havent seen anybody do that yet

Im sorry for yelling
