Hey, anyone know where to get a good lambo style door kit? I was looking through my old rx-7 pictures and I found this pic and i was curious who makes them. I know they are expensive, but its a mod worth having if you have the money. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...IR#>/smile.png

A good bodyshop into custom work could do it. But Seven doors or any year are HEAVY, Lambo's are carbon fiber, AKA Fiberglass. You can see from the picture a huge metal brace running along the bottom of the door. They would have to redo the latch also. I personally like sisor style doors like the Lambo has (due to the small opening area). But it wouldn't be cheap to do this to a car like the RX7.



Just my thoughts. https://www.nopistons.com/forums/pub...1047683785.gif

i'd like to have gull wings but as dac said 7 doors are heavy so prolly need a lot of custom werk.

Just to clarify, carbon fiber is not fiberglass.

Different material same process... It's carbon matting vs. fiberglass matting.

True, and Epoxy resin versus polyester resin.
