I don't think Lambo's even use those doors any more.
Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

I'm just curious to see if anyone has ever installed a set of these LSD Lamborghini style bolt on door hinges onto their 996. It is a wild look but I'm curious to see how they fit, the actual room to get in and out if the car, and if it turns out that they are ok, if anyone knows where to get a set that isn't 3000 dollars. Just curious if this is a road I want to start down.
1999 C2 coupe. GT3 front bumper, turbo side skirts, Turbo rear bumper, turbo rear spoiler and wheels.

Stuff like that just make you look highschooler-silly. As a grown *** man, I'd be embarrassed every time the door opens.
Sean, thats exactly what I was thinking but hesitant to post.
JZZZAKE, Please post a pic of your 99 before you completely ruin it. There may still be hope.
Now, RELEASE THE HOUNDS!!!
Give me a double.
Hey guys. Lighten up. It was a question, not a statement. I saw a picture and was curious. This is suppost to be a forum to come a post questions, not get made fun if by a bunch of snobs. SeanR, what does that mean? That I am low rent and trash? Get over yourself. I have been a Porsche mechanic for over 18 years and have personally owned over 10 Porsches, people like you are the ones that give Porsche owners bad names. KrazyK, who are you to tell me what is ruining my car, you must be one of those Porsche guys with the gaudy 5000 carbon fiber wing and the matching stitching on your seats
Talk about needing to lighten the hell up. Don't be upset with us having an opinion on a discussion forum. You might fit in better over at 6speedonline.com.
Or you could do a search and read all the other folks that have asked this question for the past 8 or so years.
Take my comments however you want, it's not going to hurt my feelings a bit. I say go for it, put the Lambo doors on the car, it will look fantastic.
JZZZAKE, your original question would be like me asking, "Hey guys Im thinking of putting 22's and swangers on my C4S. What do you think?"
I would get exactly what I deserve from these guys. You asked, and you got it.
Being as there is still no photo, I suspect,
Porsche mechanic = changed oil in Porsches at Quick Lube
Owned 10 Porches = collects model cars
If Im wrong, sorry. On second thought, yeh get the cool Lambo doors. Dont forget the rice mufflers, neon lights, etc.
They look no worse than some of the other imitation "speed treatments" that try to make a basic car look like a more expensive car.
In this case, you might make sure that the structure can really take the weight concentrated in a different way than than the factory intended for its hinges. Might work for a bit, then deform over time.
They do not look that bad, but I hear after time....big time problems happen, also you need to make sure you get a legit kit and have a good installer. They are not for me, but I am 50/50 for them. I do believe it is your car, you pay for it and do what makes you happy.
If you want a real answer to the quality of the LSD door kits, a buddy of mine put one on his show n' shine RX-8. I helped him install em, the wiring was straight forward but time consuming (extending the harness wires to the door so there's extra slack when the doors swing up). Apart from that, the kit was of good quality, stury and the doors didn't flimflam about and opened with a relatively solid feel. You'll have to unbolt the fenders and trim the inner part to give the door some clearance room...nothing visible from the outside. Self installable with a buddy, lots of heatshrink connectors for the wiring, a dremel, a socket and 2 24's.
Had to tell passengers about the doors though because they would always try to force them outward out of habit.
I see you're from Key West. The scene down there, much like the carribean (barbados, trini..even jamaica/africa) is very different than up here. The reaon you're getting ripped on so mercilessly is partially because you're putting these doors on a Porsche, but also because that style became played out quite a few years ago in North American show circles. The carribean tuners seem to still be hot for some stuff I couldn't get off my shelves if I gave it away for free. You'd be getting ripped on if it was on other car forums too.
It's your car, do with it what you will though. The LSD kits were the better designed of the kits that were being marketed.
Not my cup of tea either but with all the other questions I've seen on this forum I think your question is valid. There's a wide range of folks who read and post to the forum so any type of post comes with the risk of someone not liking someone else's taste. To each his own ..... load and go if you like 'em.
jzzzake...
To answer your question, I do not know of any suppliers and I have not installed myself.
To offer my unsolicited opinion... The ones in the photos above look utterly stupid... Much like the 5k carbon fiber wing (that probably comes in handy at US highway speeds... On US highways. I know I've always had difficulty controlling the car in that in environment).
Then again, I think Lamborghini's look... Well, utterly stupid.
I know I sound like Andy Rooney but there you go.

If you do the mods, or any other for that matter, can you post PICs? Always seems to help others look at quality or options. I know I've looked at other poster's cars and maybe didn't like the object/point of the PIC, but noticed a nice detail or comment I was able to use.
