Default Zlr doors revealed!!!
What's up guys! If you've been following along with the Vertical Door INC kit Special I've been running on the forums, you might have remembered me mentioning a top secret project that Vertical Doors Inc was working on. Here is is in all of it's glory! This kit is extremely sexy and will definitely turn heads.











HERE IS VIDEO OF IT IN ACTION:

What makes this different from the 100x other vertical door kits?

Take a look at the doors and you'll see the difference

Yeah, looks cool and functional other than in parking lot. I mean someone would park it away from other cars but the reality is someone is always pulling up close and parking next to us, just to be associated. So then we come out and can't open the door to get in because someone else parked next to us. Now if it could be setup as a dual type opening which would be a mechanical nightmare to design, then you could get around this problem.

look at the angle of the doors. One is going straight up, the other one is flat.

To each their own. If it holds up, it's a unique product and I wish you the best in finding a buyer. I'm not one, but there must be many who are. Do a good job, treat the customer right, put out a quality product, and I think you deserve a big even if it isn't someone's style, it's someone else's.

Clean looking design.

I notice it looks much better opening and closing the doors with windows rolled down.

Do these door open conventionally as well, or do you lose all stock functionality with the conversion?

Are they only for C6?

Are these really bolt on or is there cutting required?

Unique looking but I would need to pull my other car out of the garage to get in and out of my corvette. Great new look for the show car people.
