Is this done often?

Not easy to get in and out but this will not ding anybody's doors.
I saw this at the Miller SCION Scavager Hunt.

 

Yes, a lot of tC's with Lambo doors.

 

Personally lambo doors are crap, i'd rather see em' on a real lamborghini.

 

yeah, stick with lamborghini doors on lambo's

 

Those aren't lambo doors. I hate how that word gets thrown around now. Those are VERTICAL doors. VERTICAL doors, by using the stock hinge location, rotate out a touch (enough to get in the car in many cases) and THEN rotate up. TRUE lambo doors have the hinge located more on the A-Pillar and its more of a rotational hinge, thus there is no outward opening first, the door from the start rotates up.

 

^^Agreed. They work on a Lamborghini. The door lifts up and out of the way of the triangular door opening. On a TC, you need to be a contortionist to squeeze past the door that blocks the doorway even when opened fully.

Box people do this as well. It just does not work well for full size humans. Kids do love it, however.

 

i dislike lambo/ vertical doors whatever , they are not impressive......and your not fooling anyone.
spend you money making your car faster

 

QFT

 

Personally, I don't get it. But to each their own. If you want your $16K+ SCION to look more exotic, buy a furry cheetah-printed dash cover.

 

Eh, I partly agree to the above comments about the vertical doors. On that stock looking tC above, a big WTF comes to mind. But on a heavily modded car, it doesnt look too bad.

I prefer vertical doors on cars without a window frame on the door however.

Personally, I'd never do it. But I don't hate on them all together. It's just another mod that can be done when all the bases have been covered (suspension, wheel/tire, body kit, engine mods, interior, etc)

 

I think that they're one of those things that looks cool in person and cool when you're at a show or with other Scions, but goofy and not-too-great when you're driving by yourself to the grocery store. Kind of like neons in my book.

Though, I also think they've become a requisite for a car that wants to win shows. It's kind of sad.

 

I like 'em...and so do the ladies.

 

still and all their LAMBO doors, they got the idea from the Lamborghini's so the word is not "tossed" around, just because somebody came up with the idea to put LAMBO doors on cars that's not a fraction of the cost of one, and chose to call them "vertical" doors doesn't deter from the fact that they came from Lamborghini's....

and for anybody who wants to get smart with me, yes i do know that Mercedes was the first to come up with the "vertical" or "bat-wing" doors.

 

"Lambo" doors are really nice, we have 4 tCs with Lambo doors in my car club, they look good and trun heads where ever you go, here are some pics of the cars:








IMO, they are totally worth it, if you can afford it of course, lucky for us we get a good deal on these from JTAutostyle.

 

I think they look nice I had a set on my accord.. but the only thing is I like them alot better without the window gaurd so its just glass But I do like the look on the Tc Alot


They look great

 

that black tC is ____in hot

 

What gets attention is what gets attention... One lift of my arm and EVERYWHERE I am at, people love them and ask how I did them, come up... gas stations are the best...

Haters can Hate, But the tC is beautiful if done right with doors.

My Winning Baby -

 

I am planning to get verticle doors done in the future. I like it.

 

I don't understand why every complains about "lambo" doors so much. Who cares if they came from Lambo's. It doesn't mean you are trying to be one. IMO, if it looks good, it looks good who gives a damn if it's on another car or not. I give props to those who have 'em, and I think they look great.

 

actually... on the first mercedes they were called gull wings.... ... just busting your chops..

id like to see a kit that actually puts the doors at 90deg... not 45 like you see i the pics.. then maybe they would be usefull...
