i dont think lambo doors ever look good on any four door.... it just doesn't flow... although ive seen some very nicely done on sports cars. especially if the door has no trim around the glass (like s2k's, not SC's or Z's...) and its 90 degrees.

A friend of mine was going to put some on his RX7...cost about a 1000 dollars.

I have actually seen one on an RX300 and on 4 doors, it just does not fly.

About 2-3 months ago I was pumping gas at a gas station and this guy pulls next to me with a 2000 LS400 with Lambo doors in front and suicide doors in the rear Guy reffered me to some shop to get it done at and he said "It would add alot of flava to yo car homie" I said thanks I'll check it out.

3 weeks ago I saw the same car downtown, this time it was on 20 inch spinners and painted this bright green. Guy remembered me and he asked if I had done it yet to my car I responded with "Haven't got around to it yet"

It was a different style car but absolutley not my cup of tea

So what about doing just the rear doors suicide, like a 69 continental? Not necessarily thinking of doing it but would that look kosher or would it be....uh wrong?

I don't know what constitutes as a VIP "mod" but in my opinion...lambo doors sure has hell does not look or feel like a VIP mod at all.

Lambo doors are exotic, not luxury or elegant.

I'd say Lambo doors on a Lexus is DUB at best.

I was extremely close to doing my rear door "suicide" style (hinged at the rear instead of the front) with shaved door handles. I couldn't quite convince myself that it would be cool on a GS... Since I still use the car to take clients out, I decided against it.
