Vertical Doors?

[TigerMike]

Personally, Lambo doors on anything but an exotic are ridiculous. They wouldn't even look right on a Vette IMO. And, on a Cobalt...well, no offence, but that is just laughable, seriously, I would laugh out loud if I saw something like that. And, then it would get posted on the internet somewhere so that everyone else could laugh too. You just don't want that. Some things just do not go together.



I can think of a million ways to better waste money than trying to make a Cobalt look like an exotic. Put a nice system in there, rims/tires, navigation, etc etc... Make the car look/sound tactful and sporty, that will gain the right kind of attention.

I've installed several sets of the diablo ones they "bolt in" but will take extensive work to get it to open/close smoothly ... Some require removing the front fenders for install ...

If you have no experience with bodywork aligment I'd take it to a shop ...

Lambo doors belong on Lamborghini's



What most people who put vert doors on don't realize is that everyone else is laughing at them. I am a mod/contributing writer/founding member/occasional staff photographer/business consultant on ShowTruckScene.com where we cover most (if not all) truck shows in the California, Arizona, Texas, Nevada, Louisiana areas and its pretty widely accepted in the show truck community that lambo doors are a joke.



In the end it is your dime so do what makes you happy, but ask yourself one thing before you spend the $$$ -



Are you doing it b/c you like it or b/c everyone else is doing it?



IMO suicide doors are much more original, cleaner looking, and cost far less while not sacrificing any practicality if the car is daily driven... just a suggestion.

That's one heck of a title! :har:



Excellent suggestion on the suicide doors. I've also seen some guys with combination doors that either open normally or scissor-style.

Get turboed like me first



I have vertical doors also. I got mine for $180 because my buddy owns a tig welding business so he cut the pieces for me and welded them.



It's nice to have during the summer, but winter time I wish I had normal or suicide doors.
