A couple of friends with Lambos have asked me to design a hinge kit to make their doors open out like a Vette or Civic.

- so you didn't have to trim the fender - all other vendors say you need to trim the fender

How much do the brackets weigh? I'm just wondering if it will add a lot of weight to the car.

The fenders dont get trimmed. Just a small piece on the door. If you go back to stock, you will not see it. If you get the older kit, no trimming at all. The new kit has a provision to set the hight of the door. The old kit does not.

There somewhat heavy, maybe 15-20 pounds a piece.
