Lambos vs Coilovers

Im either going to go with lambo doors or coilovers. Which one should I do. Just so you know the coilovers are going to be more for show then anything. I want to be able to slam the car at car shows this next season, yet lambo doors look so nice on our cars.

NOTE: Dont need performance mods, I already run 2.7, 60's, full exhaust, 35 shot, and meth injection, Intake, CA H/E and solid mounts.

*other* (Give Me the money you are going to spend on it)

lol... like both but i would go with the coilovers if nothing more than the variablility of them. Yea you can slam the car for shows for daily driving you can have them normal hight or for some fun you can lower them a little for aggresive driving. All you can do with the doors is open them. I guess my point is if you like messing with your car and tinkering go with the coilovers i see you haveing more fun for a longer time

I would probably say go with the coilovers because you will get more function out of them.

I want to do the doors eventually one day but I think its gonna be one of the last things I do

It all depends on what you do with your car.. If its a pure show car then I'd say Lambos and bag your car.. I don't like lambos on these cars. Our doors are so big. But since you want them if you do track your car then I'd say coilovers and later on down the road get the lambos. Because coilovers are multi functional. They look great but they also highten handleing. Plus alot of tracks won't allow a car with bags on there...

hey PWC, I don't know if you remember the silver '04-'05 STI that was parked behind you at HIN (where this pic was taken), but it just got featured in the new HCI.

I say lombos. its more unique. There are plenty of slammed cars out there(although most of them are probably just lowering springs), granted it makes them look a lot nicer, but how many have lambos?

this is correct...they are lambo type doors..not lambo doors...vertical door would be one of the first companies to make the kit and one of the best if u want a 60* kit...if ur going for a 90* kit GT Factory is whats the hotness
