Default Has Anyone Ever Put Gullwing Doors On Their tC??

Just a mod I was thinking about putting on mines,just wanted to know if anyone else has them and have they given them, or are they known to give problems?

i personally thought about it, but then decided not to because of the space. say if i were in a parking lot i would have to park away from cars to open the doors. if you really want. lambo doors gives it a nice appearance despite what other people think. for me, im waiting on Autoloc's Voodoo hinge. you open the doors sorta like the koeingsegg ccx. :D

Those have to be some strong hinges and struts to open these heavy doors like that.

I have close ups of the hinges. they are very bulky and not the prettiest. But the design and concept are awesome

This is a bit off topic but i was browsing that site and came across this. Its a retractable license plate. Press a button and your plate hides from view. You could wire it to your ignition so it hides when ignition is off.
