its a universal kit customized for the Z. we will be distrubuting them as soon as the imperfections are fixed. expect a price between 1,500 to 2,000. Then you will need a good bodyshop guy coz you will need to trim the fenders and install longer bolts on the door itself so that the hinge can mount properly.

the body shop that did my doors is working out a deal with the company that manifacture the hinges that will enable them to sell the lambo kits at a lower price than going directly to the company.

nice pics man..you really did a good job on your car.

I posted my pics of your car on my other Autofest thread if you don't mind.

I was the random guy that came up to you and was like "you from my350z.com??? thanks for your forum door install pics!" and ran off to take more pictures.

I never got your name..sorry bout that...I think I heard it while they were calling out the trophies.

Anyhow..congrats on the Showcase trophies.

Until the next show. =)

No answer sometimes is answer too... It wasn't anywere close to noticeble differences... or was it even worse than original?

Thumbs up Nice

Nice job on your car all around. The doors are especially sweet. Also, if nothing else, you should be congratulated on the fact that this is (so far) a seven page thread with nearly universal appreciation of your work and no flames/fights. It speaks volumes.

Man, those doors are sick. Awesome video. For $1500 to $2000, you'll find a lot of buyers.


It's probably the most distinguishing thing you can do to the physical appearance of your Z.

to satisfy the curiosity. well the story was they did their research and design with a base Z. when they did the dyno run on the track model they had less than desirable results. not that it was low or anything but it was less than their published results. Maybe its coz of the VDC (traction control) or the fact that my car has 2,500 Miles. Still i can feel it with the butt dyno it was like 15-18 HP.
