Just out of curiosity , to anyone thats actually plannin lambo doors. What are your plans regarding the door frames ? , are you going to have the top half (mirror up) blended into the cars frame , or just have the lot open ?.

not too sure what you mean, but i think that the whole door will be opening on mine (how else would you get out?)
 
I mean this:

Door is square & the windows not held within a frame. It fixes into the cars frame when closed.

In this one , the Frame is still around the door when opened.

The NSX at standard is built that way & the RX8 is standard with a frame , Now just personal opinions , but id say the latter looks shite :). Just wonderin wether it would be worth it to blend the upper frame into the car itself so the window just fits into the side.
 
both are nice, but the first is nicer alrite.

wouldnt fancy the cost of it tho
 
shame it costs so bloody much, wouldnt mind it myself with the front goin up and back doors opening other way. would be ok i guess - wait for it to be dirt cheap, well kinda cheap anyway
 
Yeah wait for every other nova and saxo to have them, the'll be nice and cheap by then. :rolleyes: (the NSX has been ruined, they look so beautifull as standard)

yeah thats a good point. rather set the trend then follow if u know what i mean. depends how cheap and if i win lottery this weekend really! :rolleyes:
 
also if you flushed off the top half of the door the windows would have to be open in order to open/close the door

No no.... the window fits into a rubber duct for water proofing purposes from the side when the doors closed (the 25 Degree's out on them hinges will happen as the doors almost closed). To work out what to do , you just gotta examin something like a Mits GTO off the top of my head.

-edit-

Forgot about this , i took this pic a few weeks back when we had a GTO in the garage. So in blue peter fashion , heres something i did earlier ;). See when the windows up it just sits ontop of the rubber to make it water tight. (ud still have a sill remember)

wouldnt fancy the cost of that, so much easier to say it than do it cos your talking about a loada work then some custom made sill rubbers that will probably leak.

I understood what coolrunnings said about the drop down window, the astra coupes have em where as u shut the door, the window automatically drops an inch then slides back up once its shut to snuggle into the rubber recess

The cost of lambo's will drop but i doubt every nova wil ave em as i'd say these days those sorta mods are out of most nova owners budget- cant say the same for saxo's yet tho lol

Will soon see anyways, anyone thats been in a modified car wiv lambo's will know no matter what people say its still a fresh mod especially when u pull up outside a club :cool:
 
Dunno about the cost wise , would depend on wether youve got the time & space to do it. Ie someone whos got mates in the business could get it done on weekends etc & just pay for materials. Main problem would be that after weldin the cars gonna need repainting.

Have to say... would be unique though.
