What your asking for doesn't exist. All the lambo door kits I've seen all require you to open the door 10" then up. Its a fraud if you ask me. If you want the one's that go straight up, pony up a couple hundred grand and get the real deal not a cheap knock off.

Not possible to raise the door unless it opens outward several inches.

also. The doors themselves are not made such that they can open this way...they must go out sideways a bit before going up.

Your car do as you please, but Lambo's don't even have those doors any longer. I think when all the ricers started to do it, they decided to stop.

This old guy,( i do mean old ) who frequents the local car show on Wednesday nights has V-doors on his Yellow Lingenfelter S/C 616. I have checked it out and i don't know who makes them, but hardware was top quality and looked like a very rigid set up. Granted they do attract a crowd. The next time i see him i will ask about them. Found a advertisement in Corvette Mag. ( Sept 2005 ) Verticaldoors.com ?? My opinion. look nice but not for me.
