Don't do it Hadi...

Please don't do it!

Kevin · 04-18-2008

why am I not surprised.....

Z Factor · 04-18-2008

It would be blasphemy.

GrayZ · 04-18-2008

go for it Hadi, and while you are at it
see if you can find one of those spiffy
neon under car light kits, oh, and those really
big muffler's are cool too.
and if it's in you're budget, one of those
splash type graphic designs on the side of the car.

I talked to the owner of that car at Carlisle. That Lambo door kit is lame IMHO. The doors open in the normal manner (straight out and level) and then you lift the door to the tilted up position.

I don't like the look on a C-4.

Hadi:

At the end of the day, it is your car, do with it as you wish.

Most of us here suspect that you're a little strange, this just confirms it.

Don't forget the aluminum wing bolted to the back end. If you have the doors, you must have the wing.

I often find myself swimmin' outside of the school - part of that creativeness that comes with being left-handed, perhaps? But, if you like the look, it may actually have some very practical advantages - tight parking places or when some $%^*&^ drives to the far end of the parking lot, just so he can park tightly next to the Z.

A true Lambo door swings up vertically up and down from the latch - has no (or very little) lateral lean when the door is open. The door is designed from the git go to open and close that way, but not the C4 door. (So, that makes the kit a "bit" more gimmicky - not far removed from the kind of thinking a ricer uses when considering a big showy "fart-can" muffler.)

Then, I'd be concerned about the quality of the kit, and "unintended consequences" resulting from some ill-fitting/poorly engineered latches or hinges, etc. Get lots of testimonials from those that have had it done. Then IF the process can be reversed w/o any residual holes or other maladies, go for it. Not my cuppa tea, but in some cars (Lambos for instance) it looks...different (but, as Z drivers, we're used to "different"!

)
