I don't see a C5 Corvette version on their website, did you get a universal kit? If so, you are probably in for a lot of work.

Wow $299? I'd think twice before I'd put that on my Vette. Just my opinion.

Your first post and you stepped right into the den of the Corvette "elitist police", biting comments, over used pictures and all. Sorry, can't help you with instructions, but it is your car, your money, and it is your opinion as to whether the Lambo doors look good or not that counts. Good luck.

Do what you want with your car, kid. You're the only one that has to like it.

Default lambo door

To all haters: I just got the back back from the shop. I love my corvette it worth every pennies. Who cares if Lamborghini doesn't come with them or with them. Many stock cars does come with anything like spoiler, carbon fiber, turbo, DVD player etc. Why do you guys buy them and install them on your car? My only reason was because i like it and i think it's unique.

I took it to the shop they lube it and adjust everything. As of right now everything seem perfect. The shop would readjust it for free if something would happen.
