Say it ain't so....getting kicked out of R gruppe?
Just a matter of time before someone did this on a Porsche! Can't decide whether this ruins ferry's creation or puts you on the R hall of fame? Christ, maybe it puts you on the ban list and gets you kicked out of R if you did this on an early car?
You decide..  CAD designed kits in the $4,000 USD range. Cheap kits starting at $1400 USD. God knows how long to install

HOOT! Well, if he parked near me, I wouldn't have to worry about him dinging my 1972's doors...looks a bit "Carol Doda" , doesn't it?

What no dubs on that car? I can jsut see that on an R-gruppe car. It might make it difficult to climb over the door bars on the cage.

I'm waiting for the Gull Wing Kit.
P.T. Barnum was right. Build it and they will buy it, UGH!

Hamann did either a regular 996 or Turbo with the Lambo-style doors. I'll see if I can find the pics. Didn't look too bad although, its a little over the top.
EDIT, I guess they are not really Lambo-style, more like gull wing? Timothy

I think for the first time, I'd vote for GruppeB banning... 50% for the car, 50% for that ridiculous pose...

Don't those doors make it very hard to get in and out of the car?
Nice photo of the guy with the "prison stance"... :/

Re: Say it ain't so....getting kicked out of R gruppe?
Caption this:
Yo hommies, what up, check out my fly ass lambo door kit I just had my posse install. Now see this here finger, well this used to be how big I was. Now... well $hit dawg im still that small... but these doors will surely help me mentally cope with it. I'll be getting my neon kit and wing in the mail soon, then im ready to start street racing. West Siiiiiiide!! No seriously, in my opinion its not all that bad. I just couldn't pass up the chance to bash that doofus in the pic.
