Default Need a bolt on Lambo kit

Hey folks; I've got a custom car & want to get a Lambo kit for it but my Corvette guy here in Calgary says I have to take the front clip off. That's 100 hrs labor Has anyone done a bolt on without removing the clip???

got pics of your car? curious to see your custom vette.



now this is strictly my opinion, but i dont really like those lambo door kits..... unless its a lambo of course. I just feel as though they look out of place on a vette. I'd rather spend the money on something else.


but then again... im not you and its not my car.

Looks like a good kit. Not a big fan of lambo doors but that's pretty cool.

after you spend a few weeks here you'll probably change your mind about having Lambo doors.....

maybe Cowtown Vetteguy gave you a ridiculous estimate so you'd have some time to think it over

If you can't post pics, can you at least describe the "custom" work you've done to your car?

If your corvette looks like/or is one of the following the lambo door kits will look great! If its not I would pass on them.

Im guessing it might be a lambo door kit seller trying to stir up advertisement for his product. I might be wrong but we havent seen any pics yet... time will tell.
