Sneaks goes vertical

[Sneaks]

Well, my buddy VWdragthing harrassed me into a mod I've been thinking about for a couple years. I've always thought the vertical doors were cool as hell(call it the little boy lambo thing) so we bit the bullett and did both his vert and my coupe.
13 hours total for both cars. Alignment is a *****! You have to take the door off to make every small adjustment. And believe me, there are LOTS of small adjustments!
Well, love em or hate em, here they are:

Vin didn't have vertical doors on the RX7 in that movie. :D
They're from Dreamcarcustoms. Very good design. A little pricey, but quality stuff for sure.:thumbs:

I'll admit I've never been a fan of the Lambo door mod, but if you like 'em that's all that matters. :yesnod:

They do draw attention no doubt, been at plenty of shows with friends that do have them...GB and Z06-Jim come to mind, but they're just not for me.

Nice pics too! :thumbs:

:cheers:

Difficulty in closing compared to factory ? Wife is "picky" and complains enough now !!!

[wwomanC6]

O Really? Now I don't feel so guilty about revealing the contents of the coveted mystery box to Wendy.

[wwomanC6]

Feeling Guilty? I have Barn Secret Clearance :D :lolsmile:

[Y2Kvert4me]

Now I don't feel so guilty...
Implies you once did. :skep:

[Sneaks]

I did a background check. She's got "secret squirrell" clearence. :rofl:

I agree Tom, not for everyone. :yesnod:

Closes easily, can be used just like factory since it opens about 60-65% of normal. 2 cylinders per hinge make opening a breeze. :thumbs:

Not quite that long. :D
Thanks Wendy! :cheers:

OWNED! :rofl:

[Cobra4B]

Looks like they're both trying to fly away ;)

I would fly away too if somebody had been pulling my wings for that many hours. :rofl:

[Munch]

Implies you once did. :skep:

Exactly. I felt a little guilty showing Wendy the contents of the infamous mystery box and not telling anyone else but now, not so much. I was actually showing Gary and she happened to be there.

OWNED! :rofl:

I fail to see how I was owned. :nono:

I fail to see how I was owned. :nono: Iz OK, we only have to wait 13 more days. :D

[Munch]

Impressive that you are keeping track. :cheers:

[Y2Kvert4me]

Impressive that you are keeping track. :cheers:Actually, I had kind of forgot about it. :ohnoes:

I just searched back 3 pages of OT to find your original post, checked the date and looked at a calendar.

Resourceful maybe...Impressive, not so much. :lol:
