Default Lambo Door How-to? (problems with fitment)

So.. I ordered a kit from someone here on Scionlife, and it seems the kit doesn't fit.

Let me show you what I mean:

Top hole

Bottom Hole

Here you can see both holes.

So, did this guy send me the wrong kit? If so, does ANYONE have any idea what this kit would go on, or who its even made by?

One other question, does the Scion Lambo Kits usually come with 700lb shocks, and half inch steel brackets?

Default Lambo Doors

That's the problem unfortunately u will have to modify this kit and remember there's no such thing as bolt on! Especially on Lambo doors, of course if u spend $2500 on the right kit that's a different story.
Sorry but please keep us updated for future member with same issues.

Just my .02 but I have seen a lot of car shows on Speed Channel and every time they have talked about a Lambo Kit they have to modify it to the car.
I don't think they make a direct bolt on kit. Good luck cause it should look awesome when done.

Do yourself a favor.

Stop the install.

Pull the "Lambo" hinges off.

Put everything back in the box.

Seal the box.

Reinstall your stock hinges and doors.

Return the "Lambo" kit.

If they won't take it back, it's ebay time.

Come back on here and thank us for saving you when you come to your senses in a few months.

Otherwise, it looks like there may be some adjustment in the upper hinge mounts. Try installing the lower bolt first and using it as a pivot point to find the correct upper mounting holes.

I agree that's why if u want them done right it cost around $2500 at least in Miami but it's hot it's the Diablo Doors in Chrome and do an awesome job but just letting u know it will cost a pretty penny which u might fine better use elsewhere in ur ride.
It will look good but remember it can affect your sealing of the door as well.

There is a reason they are called Lambo doors and not Scion doors.

Listen to what RTon20s said.
