It is his car let him do what he wants, What's wrong with lambo doors, I will be putting a set on my 85 along with all the other mods or at least I'm thinking about it

Why do people call some cars "ricer" when they don't like what other people have done, I always thought rice was something you cooked on a stove

I guess some will really hate my car it has 20" wheels on it too and is getting coilovers so I can lower it and get the right stance

I have to agree. My advice to adjust the hinges would be.
Step 1: Take lambo hinges off
Step 2: Throw lambo hinges in the trash
Step 3: Put regular Corvette hinges back on
Step 4: Go throw away all your fast and furious movies
Step 5: If the thought crosses to buy a metal spoiler , fart can, or lambo hinges for your vette please seek professional help and please ask your corvette forum before doing anything further!!!!
