Very Nice! Although a lot of people will tell you that they are played out, I still like them! Looks good man! Who makes the kit and did you have to get your fenders rolled?

Looks good bro, good work. Not my style but they look alot better than the last time we saw a coupe with verticle doors. Yours go more verticle than his.

i like lambo doors on cars without the window frame (ie. celica, G35)

it looks alot better with a smaller looking door (when the windows are down and the doors are up)

Vertical doors are cool if they are open up straight vertically like the real ones on Lamborghinis and that one really expensive Benz.

When you open the door out a bit and then they tilt up. . . .well, personally I think that is lame. To each his own though!

1. The Mercedez you are speaking of is the SLR McLaren.. and those aren't vertical doors, those are called gull wing doors!

2. Vertical doors on aftermarket kits MUST swing out first in order to clear the fender, there is just no way for it to go straight up and down

This is like the third or fourth person to come on the site with vertical doors on the A/C... we've heard all the comments before, all the reasons why they depreciate the vehicle, all of the problems they cause down the road, etc, etc, etc. It actually surprises me that people still put these on their cars... its kind of like spinning rims... there was a time when it was popular, but now spinning rims are just played out...

To the OP, its your car, do what you want, I've done the lambo door thing on my previous car back when it was popular and although I liked it for the first few months, I will NEVER, EVER, EVER do that to a car again... but to each his own.. enjoy your car!

Not too bad looking, I wouldnt personally do that but to each his own. I do like your wheels though, pretty slick.

I would just be afraid my ride would get stolen in 5 minutes with those on.

True Blake but remember, it is his car and he can do whatever he likes to it. Yes is is played out but some folks still like them and find them very cool. After all, MIATimmy3.5 should be able to post pics of his ride with out any fear of any other members ridiculing him for his decision. Just trying to keep the peace and keeping the forum a safe place to go to and hang out.

MIATimmy3.5,..tell me that your screen name isn't your GF/wife and yours put together... jk
