    Thumbs up Naoki put Scissors on his VX...

    Just found some pics of it. Looks cool.
    I am sure he will update his website with some more photos of it.

    Nevermind i have the wesite I just didnt know his name.

    I have always wondered do all those add-ons (magnets and such) all over his engine, springs, and anywhere else, actually work?

    Hmm.... I am on the fence on this. Though, I am thinking.... I dont like it so much. I think now that I see it, the doors are WAY too bulky for it to look sleek and thus, gives me the impression of redneck ricer mod, heh. I guess it looks good on some cars, not so much on other. I am glad that someone at least did it though so I could bury that scissor hatchet.

    And ya, that whole garage thing.... man, I would have to get the popper and crawl in and out through the back, heh.

    I agree with Wormgod...
    it's pretty cool to look at sitting there, but that has to be a hassle.
    Of course they still swing the traditional way, I think.
    At least now there's legitimate pics to show people that inquire about doing it.

    Bottom line, it looks pretty good on a VX.

    Our rides are unique enough already to where Lambo doors look like they may have been stock! If you are driving a weird Mars-rover mobile, might as well freak people out with the doors.

    I like it. I wouldn't pay to have it done to MY VX, but if I were buying it used, already modded, I'd probably enjoy it.

    Nice work.

    Personally, I don't like it. Not that I'd do it but I think suicides would look better.

    Suicides would be awesome. For that matter, Back to the Future Delorean gull-wings would be unique.

    Don't get me wrong, I like the stock doors just fine! But I also like creativity.

    Yeah, they did a bang up job at vacuuming the yen out of his wallet...and did a pretty good job of looking ridiculous as well. They work at least as well as a lucky(not for the rabbit) rabbit's foot, or one of those pieces of cloth the catholics rub on a dead "saint" then mail to you to cure your ills...for a small donation of course.
