Well im thinking of using lambo door hinges ,ferrari 550 manarello tails,east bear light kit, and shave the door handles i want everyones input good or bad and if anyone has a pic of a fc with lambo doors please post
or will i be the only moron/genius to do it

 

i have heard of someone doing it to a fd but i havent seen it done to an fc (if it works out i may try it as well if i get my fc.)

 

If you wanted an oppinion here goes: It is personally not my taste but atleast you have one original thing I haven't seen before which is the 550 tails. I would think that the scissor doors add a lot of weight to the car with that hydraulic piston thing but they do look nice. The light kit is nice but I preffer something like the RE amemiya kit or round dual light pop-ups to that one. Shaved door handles would clean up the outside a bit but I wouldn't waist my time if I were to do cosmetic work on my car. I beleive the lambo scissor door have been done before.

Final oppinion- If you have the cash to do it go for it and its always your car/money/time. I would NOT do it though. I would rather spend all that money in making it faster.

PS- If you have pics of the 550 tails post them up please I havne't seen those or I don't remember them.

Sorry for the bad grammar.

 

Those lambo doors that you want to do will cost probably $5000-$10000 because it will be a custom job. I remember reading the price for the conversion on a 3rd gen. IMHO it is not worth all the time, effort or money that needs to be put in for the doors alone. The shaved door handles are somewhat uncommon and I believe there are companies that sell kits for it.
If you want to do it and have the money to put down go for it. You will have a one of a kind FC.

 

Hey guys, there is a company, DECAH, who makes lambo doors for cars, they have a custom system, a pivotal hinge, it wont add so much weight.

They only make them for cars by demand, so we should try to get all the FC members to write quick short letters, and we could mail them to decah, even if you don't like lambo doors, just so we have another fc product on the market.

 

I really dont think too many people here will help you out. There are lambo door posts all the time and the general conclusion is that not many people want it or like it.

 

There are kits available that make the process not as bad as it seems. The last time I saw them advertised, it was in Sport Compact Car. However, you might want to consider the practicality of it. Everything I have hear says that Lambo style doors are a pain in the *** with regards to operation and maintenance. I have not had ny experience myself, so take that for what it's worth. I'm not sure it will add as much weight as people think, since that area of the door is already reinforced for the hinges.

 

Highschool pipedream anyone?

 

Ferrari tails, lambo doors, light kits....have any performance mods? If your going to blow all this money away on pure visual mods, and wont have any extra $$ for performance, then screw these mods that aren't going to make you go any faster. Besides, modding one car to look like another always ends up looking like *** IMO, and everyone will just call you a wannabe.

 

worst. idea. ever.

 

RE Amemiya had some wicked FC's with scissor doors, and other weird combos, just do what ya want.
