Default Vertical Door kit

I have a 2006 mustang gt hard top coupe and I want to put a set of the vertical doors on it. I am trying to get in touch with others who have had this done. What kit did you go with? Are you happy? Bolt on kit or welded on? Did your inner fender need to be rolled? Any other comments....

Do you mean the lambo doors? Here is one that I found on E-Bay. I wouldn't spend that much on them. I would wait and let the prices come down on those. All the 05-06 parts are going at a premium price right now because they are so hot.

Only problems I have heard about them is sometimes the fit and finish is a little off.

I wonder if your window will still go up that extra half an inch and seal when you close your door. If you ever flip your car you'd be stuck inside ! goodluck

I don't know... they look like they would be awkward to use to enter/exit the car.

Why do you need Vertical doors when you will never park your car vertical?

Just doesn't look right to me!

Looks like getting in and out of thae car would be a bitch. Way to much $$$ for that as well.

Yes, in those pics on his website the doors don't seem to swing out from the car too much! If they did or at least if they pivotted up more, I could see how it might be useful to someone like me who has to park between 2 of my neighbor's cars each night. With the curve of the window it makes opening my door and getting in and out a chore. Don't want to even touch my neighbors truck!
