Regardless of body kit/mods whats up with the way the doors already are?
Unless your fighting for the `most mods` trophy that is?

Take a look at Bootymans car,give you an idea of the extent of modding that can be done,leaving the doors as they are!

On the other hand there is a zone car with lifty uppy doors,was on Ebay last week I think?

Good luck anyway :)

Forget it mate. They look so bloody gay. I considered it after being offered a set by a company for free, but the though of pulling up outside Sainsbury's on a Sunday and lifiting my door up like a Lambo horrified even me :eek:

Besides you'd only be the 56,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 person to do it. Defo no if you ask me, but if it's what you want then go for it mate!!

Only if you really mod the car with wide kit, huge wheel, etc. On a standard car it would look nasty. Besides woudnt you feel ashamed pulling up in your £2k E30 and lifting the door up like a Lambo :o:
