But It looks pretty hot.

Next, your car will look like this...
So 1 item makes your car a ricer? Doesnt fit the bill IMO.

if that one item is so ridicuously pointless, and is done only to give the look of being faster than it is.. then yes, one item has the potential to turn your car into a ricer...

if you have a giant spoiler on the back of your car, then its a rice rocket

if you have rocket boosters on the back of your car, then its a rice rocket

if you have fender flares that aren't real, with no cold air intake, then its a rice rocket

if you have a giant muffler for loud sound, then its a rice rocket...

if you bought lambo doors because you like them, then maybe its not a rice rocket...

if you bought lambo doors because you "thought" other folks would think you were cool... well then its a rice rocket, and you're dumb for ding something just to impress other folks, especially after its gone out of style...

and to the OP, it's not hatin' ... I've been there and done that back when it was in style... but it isn't anymore... PERIOD...

you asked us what we think, and with the exception of a few folks that think it looks good, but have no experience on the actual depreciation you're doing to your car... most folks thinks its a played out pointless mod that borderline qualifies you as a ricer..

look, if you do it for you, then great, but don't do it, then come on a forum asking guys what we think, and then get upset when you find out what folks REALLY think when you pass by them and lift your doors up...

It looks pretty clean on your car.

I wasnt feeling it when the other guy did it, it must be the color, because those lambo doors look sweet in white

oh, and let's not forget to ppint out that you got one of the cheaper kits that doesn't even go the full 90 degrees, thus limiting you getting i and out of the car...



sorry buddy, you'll get few supporters here.. I think the jury is in and the overwhelming majority don't like it...

when the door is closed (which i would say 99.99999% of the time it is while driving) the car wouldnt look any faster with lambo doors so how is it rice?

that being said... i would not do it to my car lol.

Yea sorry bro, just aint fealin the lambos on a nissan. I wouldnt consider it rice but I would say they have no place in the A/C world. Don't get me rong, its your tast and it looks clean but Lambo doors belong on a lambo, just like infinity badges belong on infinitys. If you want to turn your car into something its not then maybe you shouldnt of bought a A/C. The only reason people do these things is because they can't afford the real thing, but they want people to think they can.

Do you also put Versace tags on your levi's to make people think you have money?

I find it funny that ppl take so much time explaining why they think somthing looks bad.... if they think it looks good its usually a simple post "looks good man!" if they think it looks bad they continuosly rant on and make fun of it, then a couple posts later sit and rant again about how this is a general chat and if they ask for an opinion blah blah blah..... my question is why hate sooooo much?

More people may mod their cars and be hesitant to even post pics due to the negative responses and harshness....and I love seeing ppls mods (whether I like them or not).....I personally would be hesitant to post mods I did for fear of being kicked in the groin right after I spent my money

I think they look pretty tight. To say that "lambo doors only belong on a lambo" is being rather elitist anyway, regardless of whether you own a $250,000 car or not. It's the style that people get behind and not the imitation factor.

...and if we're talking about being ricey, I'd have to say that the Greddy exhaust system for our coupes looks far more Fast & Furious than lambo doors...just my $0.02...

I didn't know the complications involved with these doors over time, so many thanks to the Doc for pointing that out...kudos mate.

Hmm, is it me or all the Canadians on this forum loooove the Lambo doors?!?!?!? interesting trend...

btw saying greddy exhaust is more rice than lambo doors... yea it is YOUR 2 cents, prob ONLY yours too.

Im not gonna say it's ugly because eye of the beholders, but i can tell you this, try parking that car in LA these days, you'll beg to take that thing off in no time.

I share the exact same sentiment. I think that the Greddy exhaust for the A/C looks rice, especially if you get it with the blue tips.

I see it all the time on Honda ricers up here.

To be honest I am not feeling them, Lambo doors look wrong on cars with the door frame on the top. Even then lambo doors belong on lambos.

And I might as well post it first;

but its your coupe if you like then thats the bottom line.
That picture was taken in Scottsdale, AZ. I went to high school with the kid who drives that civic. He thought it was so badass but obviously it is not. thats funny it ended up on here

THis what I'm talking about.. I love exciting threads like this... no name calling, just a bunch of differences in opinion, nothing wrong with that....

for the person that made the comment about the GREDDY exhaust... I FEEL THE SAME WAY...

If people wanna go rice, let them-- RICE is just a style-- you may not like it but others might. What falls into that "RICE" or other style categories are up to each person-- there is not set list. Like many have said before, everyone is entitled to their own opinion and if you don't like it, good for you.

I don't like the Lambo Doors. Whether it's RICE style or not, I think it's stupid. The blue tipped Greddy's I don't see as RICE as at. I think it gives the car a touch of class, but that's just me.

Bleh, the blue tipped GReddy's are rice-a-roni, especially regarding the looks.

Unless, of course, huge, angled, blue, loud, and overall home-made exhaust pipes qualify as classy.

And this is pretty much why I posted the other thread...

He asked us what we think... That in and of it self is a loaded question with any "commercial"/bolt-on mod... As I said before, His ride, his taste! It might look good to most, but that doesn't mean it's for everyone.

Sry to the OP that all the "Rice" talk is taking up your thread about your mod... I really was trying to save the "Great Rice Debate" from starting up again by posting that other thread...

I think at this point it's safe to agree to disagree

If thats not true, then why would anyone want to put infinity logos on a car that looks similar. It is probably because the Infinity name is known to be a higher end name and more expensive so they want people to think that it is an infinity. Which would be a easy mistake to anyone that isnt a car enthiust.

Yea I admit i may of been a little hasty on my judgement of the lambo doors. It is very possible that he was just trying to make his a/c unique, which ime sure we all want to do. But in my opinion, I dont believe lambo doors belong on anything but a lamborghini. Hence the name lambo doors.

So if I offended anyone I am sorry but that is my opinion.

Hey man, what ever makes you happy, really. I mean I was the only person who put dual exhaust ( with 5.5'' tip) on a 96 camry in my crew. got alot of negativity, but the talk was quiet when i was waiting at the finishline. Doesn't look too bad, honestly.

Man, why is everyone so concerned with rice? Rice is great! It goes with any stir-fry. :P

Seriously though, I feel like a lot of people talk about "rice" like we're in high school (I know some of you are but we all know how it is there). It's like, "ooo, lets not hang out with those people or not wear this or not say that, or not act like this cause then we're not 'cool' and people will make fun of us." I'm sorry, but I'm sick to death of attitudes like that. Be who you want to be and put whatever the damn hell you want on your car that you like if that's what you like. Who gives a god damn about "rice" anything. If you like it on your car, then that's what should be on your car because it's there to please you not anyone else.

I personally would never do this mod either....however I think it looks nice.... and does being canadian have to do with liking things or not, I see plenty of Yankers stated on the first page they thought it looked nice/clean.

no dice on the lambo doors for me, but if you like your car better for having them, more power to you. Robert is right, they're not going to last, but if you have the money and time to keep them in working order

also, go mow your lawn dude! you've gotta rain forest in your front yard!
