Yes.. it was semi-released and was still in prototype stage.

It has now been bumped up to full production stage and has been officially released!

It would be nice if someone could post a movie file showing how the door is opened and closed.

Picture does not do any justice of how the door is opened. All the pictures show is the door hanging up. Nothing more.

For spending around 2k for this bolt-on conversation, it would be nice if there are better images than just pictures.

Thanks for the video. I seen his car in person with the doors hanging up. But never the action of it closing down. :-) Is it really a bolt on?

I heard BigBlackTrackGuy had a difficult time installing it due to sanding the fenders?

certainly isnt cheap, but companies that can do this sort of stuff and make these parts from metal are limited. its gotta be a custom metal part Id imagine. cant exactly make that in your basement.

Man, 2g's for a couple of door hinges. It looks sweet, but I couldn't justify it for that kind of cost. That's too bad, I was really thinking about it until I saw the price.

Default Yeah true, true...

Man that is cool, but no way are you gonna get a lot of people to spend 2g's on just hinges. I was looking at getting it, but the most I would pay would be < $1,000.
