Does anyone know who makes a good lambo door kit for a 1986 c4?

You can get a kit from JC Whitney that will allow you to put it on any car because they dont make a specific kit for a C4. Its like $2000, but do you really want lambo doors on a vette?

The bottom line is that no one makes a good kit for the C4....you pays your money and you takes your chances.
The reason nobody makes a good kit is that no one wants them.
Sorry, but them's the facts.

Here's the results for searching the C4 section for, "lambo." 14 threads, if there is a kit or any information out there, it'll be in one of these threads.

there is a kit.

I just saw an ad for it in Corvette Enthusiast.

There is a part of me that likes the idea... it makes it easier to get in and out in tight parking spaces...

That was very reputable of you, Neat. You get a gold star for being so... tactful.

Yeah, but Ramey would do something wrong, and the boss would be all over him.

And I think you have to be a NFL or NBA star to have your auto work done there.

WTF are Lambo doors? I clicked on Neat's post and, Ta Daaaaaaaaaa, no matches. The story of my life in our CF search function. Even when it is handed to me on a silver platter! But I am not curious enough to search any further.

Type "lambo" in the text field, then go check the box to search in the archives as well as the current posts, then highlight the C4 section, and finally click search. If you follow those steps you should get a list of threads:

If searching for "lambo" doesn't work, try searching for "rice" or " "
