That's a great price man... cause we also install those here in AZ at my shop and I won't touch them for less than 3K. I would only do a bolt on kit for that 2400 price.

Default Anyone??

so has anyone purchased this kit?
I contacted the company and they said that this kit is complete bolt on but require one hole to be drilled on the top of the hidge, which they do in order to make the fittment even tighter on the specific vehicle.

This sounds a lil too good to be true to me... so has anyone had PERSONAL experience installing this kit?

They were only able to provided one other pic of the kit:

Am I the only one that thinks that looks like the Decah kit? I may be wrong since I haven't had any personal experience with them but...thats what it looks like to me. But I'm 1/2 asleep and can't see without my contacts in.

How much are the door panels in fiberglass and ready to paint? Do you need my door panels first to make them or are they ready to ship? Also what are you doing with the vent in the door? Does that still work? What if I want to take that vent and attach it to the dash and just omit the interior door handle. I'm going to use poppers to open the door. Is that something you can do?

Can you provide pics of the door panel both installed and uninstalled? I also, want to see the inside of the door with the door closed to see how it matches up. Otherwise, can you make me a custom door panel.

that is the decah kit. same one i got. i had my kit welded on and there was nothing "bolt on" about it. upside 2 welding is i havent had to adjust the doors. personnaly i like the decah or vd kits more then the ones that go straight up. to each his own i guess.

either way, my door panels are getting beat up. i need some new ones. the CF panels seem interesting. would they work on non GT lambo kits? price?

The door panels are not specific to the kit the used... it's just that the universal kit that requires cutting and welding... the doors don't open out as much as the bolt on kits so the door panels need to be modified. Hence the door panels made of CF or Fiberglass.
