the question at hand is, lambo doors or evo hood? next week i am getting my avenger kit painted, and i cant decide what to do next. some of you may be thinking, do both! well, i want to, but i dont have the money for both right now. i think the lambo doors is a huge show stopper and will really turn heads when they c me get out of the car. but if ur not sitting at a show or getting out of ur car in front of a group of people, there is no real point in having it....unless i decided to roll down the street w/ my door up. lol.
n e way, the thing that i am concerned about is that avenger sides are held on with bolts in the wheel well and double sided tape. If i get them installed, then decide to put the lambo doors on, i have to rip off all the double sided tape and redo the installation on the side skirts...so if i want to get the lambo's, i want to do it b4 i install the skirts.
the hood has nothing to do with the lambo doors..if i dont get the lambos, then i'll get the hood. but i dont know if i should get lambos or not.
please help me decide and if you have n e suggestion on how i could put the skirts on and later get the doors, please post. i really appreciate the help.
and i know alot of people on the org are getting the lambo doors from the gp, but people around here generally dont have lambo doors...there's like 1 integra, one honday, and then cavfire...so it would still be unique to my area...thanks
I dont like the lambo doors. I think its hard getting out of the car with them but Im 6 feet 2 inches tall. Id get the hood

maybe 2 years go. the lambo doors are so over played at car shows. alot of people at car shows have them so its not that custom anymore. also if you do get them, you can put them on after the sides go on. how hard is it to un-bolt some bolts? since there freshly installed, the tape wont be hard to get off. then you can just remove all the tape and put new tape on when its time to put them back on. me personally i would get the evo hood.
i totally agree that the lambo doors are out played, ya they look cool, but too many ppl have them, that is why i am doin something totally diff with my doors if i have the time to pull it off, i would say evo hood, later

yeah wow everyone has them... i mean ive seen.... wait... no.....actually ive never seen a car in public with lambo doors. Sure they are becoming popular at shows, but in the general public they are extremely scarce. They are not overplayed whatsoever.
Overplayed is such a loose term to begin with, I mean, that would be saying bodykits are overplayed, or aftermarket wheels are overplayed, etc
^^^ agreed
(Insert really cool picture of my car with some catchy name or slogan here)
the evo hood is over played too
exactly....tahts what i mean, its not seen alot at the places i go...and i dont mean like HIN type car shows...by car shows, i meant like saturday night cruise-ins or something like that. it would still be a hit at something like that.
so what do u all think? should i get lambos or use my money on somethin else like the hood? and if u think lambo's...what should i do about the skirts problem?

Either mod will be an upgrade from whqat you have. Yes Lambo hinges are becomming popular but not for a j-body. How many times have j-bodies been asked "what kind of car is that?" Or "I've never seen a j-body hooked up" or "I thought it was a mustang or camaro" I don't think the hinges are played out because 1-you have a ride that most people never seen hooked up (general public) and also, lambo hinges will just make it even more eye appealing, even the evo hood. So its basically your decision. Either mod will be nice because your modding something that people would never think to see modded.
I know a lot of you are gonna say that there are thousands of active members on here but for example....here at world of wheels at the dc convention center 2 weeks ago, there was not one j-body to be seen, not one but I know in the baltimore area there are tons as well as a few in montgomery county. So we are new to the general publics eyes and thats what makes it different. I have the lambo doors and I love them, love the looks I get but I wouldnt mind an evo hood as well.

Get both man hahahahaa. Lambo doors are fun and if you get a good kit. VDI is the one I have and it opens normal for me to get in and out and I don't have to lift the door up to get out.
here is an old pic that I found that someone had question on how far it opens. It opens about 2inches more or so I think from what you see in the pic.

ive seen a few civics around here with lambo's. I think they are ugly but thats my opinion. I thought about them at one point but they are overpriced and i no longer like how they look. Go wit the evo hood.
Not now, but someday!
i think lambo doors look weird if the door isnt framless, thats just my 2 cents
yea, if i get the lambo's, i still plan on getting the evo hood later this summer...but i want to know if i should get lambo's now so i can deal w/ the skirts better..bc if i order them within the next week, i can leave the skirts off til i get the hinges, then once the hinges are installed, install the skirts and not have to deal w/ redoing the double sided tape....i dunno...my car is a daily driver, so i dont know what to do!!!!!
more opinions please
hey i aint sayin dont get lambos anyway, im just sayin i am not going to get them myself for that reason, and bodykits are diff anyway cause you can get diff types of bodykits, some ugly and some not, and they depend on how you paint the car as too how they look and you can mold them and whateva there is alot more you can do with bodykits then lambos, so they are not outplayed,
Lambos on the other hand, when it was a rare thing it was cool and would help show appearance but now i think if you gona spend that much money on doors do something diff that hasnt been done yet, thats all im sayin, later
