Not planning on doing it. Just was looking to see how far some take their mods. Obviously others have in the past.

Had to google image search it for samples and found a back shot of the one you referenced initially. I gotta say, it looks a bit odd from the back:

Well if you combine it with "chrome pack" then it would look awesome!

Never really got the whole Lambo door thing. In my experience from the recent 80's, those doors would usually result in my coke and Ray Ban Wayfarers falling out of the map pockets at the valet curb as I arrived at the club. Gravity...it's a bitch.

Only benefit of "Lambo" doors is easier to get out of tight parking spots, not that I would ever park a nice car anywhere the parking is tight enough for it to matter.

I drove an SLS AMG for a while with the gull-wing doors. MUCH better than regular doors. It's hard not to scuff up the bottom trim of your doors with your shoes and mud and the gull-wing eliminates that problem.

Yeah, that's less of a smart-alic remark. Do you have any other tools in your bag or are you the only one?
