bigduderichie Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Hey one and all, Really new to the whole Supra scenario and, as a result, have about the same level of knowledge reg Supra's as a turnip! Basically; Car is going in for a complete respray in a couple of weeks time and I wanted to fit a set of Lambo doors (if you're going to do a job - do it right etc etc), however, I'm unsure of the best place to source these from, whether they are ALL imports from the US, the best type/mechanism to go for and if known, any costs for said doors (have been around $1700 on t'internet)? Also, if anyone knows, are these a pain in the backbox to fit?!? ANY help would be greatly appreciated! Take care and stay safe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jake Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Lambo doors are really lame. Please don't put them on a Supra. They never fit right, are complete pain to fit, and devalue your, and my, Supra. Why not buy a Nova and fit the LameBo doors to that instead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Don't go down the lambo route. Regardless of how tacky they are they will always sag and cause damage to your wings/doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Axle Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 For god sake man dont put lambo doors on the Supra!! They just dont work! Ive seen two examples in person and they just dont work with the lines of the supra. Hi Niz, You seem to have wandered into the Technical Section by mistake.

bigduderichie Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 (edited) Ha Ha Ha - class! Well, what can I say to that?! Point(s) duly noted... and solely 'cause I've misplaced my shellsuit, Addidas 4 stripes and my Burberry cap... think I'll give them a wide berth!!!! Thanks y'all for a point well made - already this site is making more sense than putting round wheels on a car! Rest assured I'll be 'keeping it real' from now on!!!

RedM Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 FWIW I think there is a definite shift towards retaining the stock look. So many Supras have been fitted with godawful bodykits, horrid wheels and ridiculous spoilers that the stock look really stands out and shows how difficult it is to genuinely improve on near-perfection. Honestly, go to a big meet and you'd think the Trial rear was OEM! Oh, and staying stock may even earn you extra cash should you sell it.

I've been looking at some of the bodykits, choice wheels, STUUUUPID decals etc etc - and they just make the Supra appear to have collided with Halfords!!! Not only did the Japs hit the nail square on the head with it's original shape, OEM spoilers and what-not, the Supra does look more classy without all the OTT bling - and I can understand why some owners insist on 'blacking-out' the windows in their fluorescent green cars with bright red and yellow flame decals plastered across their wings.... guess it's so no-one can see who's driving!

Oh, and staying stock may even earn you extra cash should you sell it. funny you say that when i went to Jap show i was expecting lots of cars with the do luck front, trial rear and veilside skirts as on the forum these seem to be the most common options. What i actually found was there were not that many on the whole club stand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats why the only thing ive changed thats stock about my car was the alloys just to freshen it up. But even then i had them made to the correct -50 offset.
