I would say "GAY," like some of the other contributors to this thread, but that is too ambiguous a response depending on which way your gate swings. For instance if your gate swings opposite the laws of nature you may be thinking, "GAY, wow! that'd be super duper then." But if not, of course, gay is GAY.

So I'll simplify my response and say, it will look rather QUEER!

A much easier alternative would be to purchase the Top Down Technologies module that lets you open and close your windows from your key fob. It's amazing how much easier it is to get in and out of your car in close quarters when the windows are down. It costs about $150 and only takes a few minutes to install.

sorry didnt mean to make it seem like a racial remark. I meant it as just anyone I guess who owns a regular car, ex honda, KIAs, hondais, Geos, lil economy cars or any pick for that matter and try really hard to make it stand out. hence the big chrome rims, fart cans, neon lights and loud sound system and lambo doors. I'm not saying they can't own a good car its just sometimes a car would look nicer just stock and simple IMO

There are modifications made by idiots every day that scream stupid. For example, Altezza tailights (the clear lights) on a Civic, for example. Toyota Altezza is the Japanese version of the Lexus IS300 which popularized the clear tail lens. The Z3 fenders, as another example, which belong on a BMW Z3, not someone's other car. To me that's like putting a Z06 badge on your Coupe or a GT-R badge on your Ford Mustang.

Stupid. For the OP's purpose, it doesn't even look like they open any less wide than regular doors.

Everyone knows the old saying about opinions.... I don't think that Z06-Jim's car looks gay by any means. I would say that for everyday use it may be unrealistic but for a show car it is a nice addition. Just my 2 cents.

I really like the stock Z06. They did a great job with it straight from the factory.

If you want to drive it to and from shows, open it up like a swiss army knife and show off all of your "look at me" stuff then go for it. Otherwise, pure CRAP.

...now that I think about it, I think it looks ridiculous no matter what the occasion unless it is actually a Lambo that came that way.

On a show car, fine, if you must, but not on a street car!
Lambo doors belong Lambo's, and Honda's of course.

Personally, I do not care for them. I think it's a waste of money. Why dont you either try cleaning out your garage or if there are two cars currently in the garage, park one outside? Just a suggestion. Good luck!!
