Perhaps, emulating the lesser cars. Hmmm, I see a new 'trend of the month', Honda's, with Honda doors! What goes around, comes around!

Re: the Gallardo, should have come with them! Can you imagine one of these Lambo door manufactures bringing out a kit for the Gallardo, now that would be funny!

I just bought my kit from BJSport.com at the Chicago VetteFest show a couple weeks ago.
There were two cars at the show with same kit installed and liked what I saw.
I thought it would look cool with the flames on my doors for show purposes.
This kit does require some trimming of inner part of door and fender areas but not that noticeable if you decide to go back to stock hinges.
I did like the way these hinges allowed the doors to open up just about as wide as stock doors for normal 'every day" entering and exiting the car. You only lift them on up to the vertical position for show.
They also just swing up to about a 45 degrees angle, which I like a little better than complete 90 degree vertical kit.
Should have them installed in a couple weeks and will report back my opinion.
