i think these benefit in two ways...they look pretty sick and you will deffinitly stand out from other cars.......and 2nd, in my opinion our doors (coupe model) are very long/heavy so when i pull in a tiny spot the wind blows and the door swings open, and from the door being so heavy the momentum from the heavy ass door hits cars that are parked next to me really hard.....also to go along with our doors being very long, when im parked in a tight space i cant open the door far enough to get in unless i wanna hit the car next to me so i slightly have to open it and put my right foot in first and kinda uncomfortably manuver my way into my car(you know what im talkin about lol)....so in conclusion...lol....i tihnk the lambo doors look sick and also benefit from those tight parking spots and hitting cars next to you

I bet you had to cut out part of the inner fender, right? Did this increase your road noise?

I still like them. They were really played out a few years ago but at least I don't see them anymore.

yes i had to cut the inner fender, but no i didnt really increase the road noise. there is some insulation in there. but maybe i dont notice cause of my system and exhaust

can you take a picture of the doors down but open as far as they go and have a video or picture of you getting in? thats my only concern as im 6' 240 and i heard they only open a 1/3 of the way. thats my only concern being this is my daily.
thanks

yes when normal they open 1/3rd of the way, but let me say that im 6'2 and 260. and its not that hard to get in and out that way. but better if you open the door all the way in the up position. not sure if i can get a video. but if you come to the show in april you will see.. i'll see if i can get something to show you. and this too is my daily driver.
