If you want to really get an extreme custom look to your show car then Lambo doors will give you the edge you need. If you went to a custom car show you will find lots of cars with this type of modification to get a huge boost in style. Nothing makes people stare at your car more than doors like these.
This type of modification is also known as vertical , butterfly , jack knife , switchblade , and scissor doors. This style of doors was developed to give your car the look and style of the Lamborghini that is an exotic performance car. This form of door was first introduced in the Alfa Romeo Carabo concept car. The idea behind these doors was not always for style. This first thought behind it was to make reversing easier as the cars that developed them had poor visibility when backing up. They could simply open the door and look behind them when reversing.
Although these doors have an incredible style they aren't going to help you get in and out of your car easier. In most cases you may have to duck around your door. This is a sacrifice most are willing to make for their cars style.
There are many different styles of these doors. Most conventional doors rotate to 90 degrees. Sometimes these doors can even be powered for ease of opening and closing. You can get your doors to rotate up to 130 degrees if you need to so they don't obstruct your ability to enter and exit your car. These are usually used on highly modified cars. VLS doors are one that can rotate to the 130 degree mark. These are different in the effect that they initially open outward before going vertical. This is similar to butterfly doors that also open outward first but the VLS doors open outward to a very small degree compared to the butterfly doors.
You may even be able to find a hybrid between scissor and conventional doors that can give you the benefits of both kinds. You get the convenience that conventional doors bring when vertical doors pose a challenge such as low roof garages.
Advantages to these doors:
- Show stopping style
- Ability to reverse while looking behind you with doors open
- One of the most respected car modifications
