I'm sure it is happening to everyone else too. Very rude dude.
    so that is what is happening

    And here I was getting ready to send off an e-mail to Scott about the pop up... nevermind!

    As far as gullwing/scissor doors go... I like gullwings better, but if you can fit lambo doors to a VX that easily... wicked cool mod! I just ain't gonna do it to mine!

    They require a long, full-height panel behind them with a regular cross-sectional shape so they can slide back. You don't see them on doors because they would eliminate functionality - essentially, you'd have to turn a sedan into a 2-door, making the back doors static so you can fit slide rails over them.

    Now suicide doors.... there is something that COULD be done. As a 2 door, that makes it easier. Only ever did one suicide door conversion and that was on an old Corvair that we restored years ago. Looks good on some cars..... and bad on others. I think it would look SWEET on a VX.

    You wanna really get tricked out though.... chop the top about 4". lose 4" of height all the way around and get all new glass, heh. Talk about Rat Finked out!!

    Dont get suckered into that. They probably offer a "universal" kit, that only needs minor welding, cutting, and facing Mecca while sacrificing a virgin.

    How Wacky Is this Idea...

    ...Instead of messing with the front doors create new doors out of the B-pilar section that flip up and out of the way for easy passenger entry :homer:

    I think it was a innocent mistake.

    VCamillo, in order to track the problem, I took out your avatar and modified your signature image tag. the problem, I beleive, is with the sig img tag as I could not get it to come up in any browser. You may want to use the domain name rather than the IP address.. Let me know if I can help.

    Just to let everybody know the company that makes the lambo door kit is AutoLoc. I helped my boy do them on his Honda Prelude a few years back. We even went as far as shaving the door handles and puting a door popper kit from them. As far as the gullwing doors saw them done on a Ford ZX2 Escort. I'm thinking of going suicide myself cuz Haven't seen them done up here in RI yet.
