camaro suicide doors
 
Do u think this can be done. And we're would you by the kit

Camaros only have 2 doors....suicide doors are for 4 door systems. Are you talking about taking the doors off and making it a two door system on each side? I think that would be way over priced to do.

He means making the two doors the Camaro DOES have open in reverse.

Good luck with that. The doors are so long you'll never get out if you park in a normal parking space. Honestly, I hate lambo doors, but I've considered installing them just to make parking lots easier.

Hehe, so have I. I feel like my door could ding the crap out of someone even if they were parked far away.

I thought it was Suicide Doors if you only had 2 that went backwards and coach doors if you had 4 doors.

there is no kit for it, I've seen it done at sema and imo it should not be on that car but thats just me. expect to pay $5000+ because it is a massive job, you need to rebuild the entire workings of the door and the jambs of the car. you also must becareful with it because due to the camaro;s unique metal structure with different types of steel used you run the chance of compromising the camaros structural rigidity by weaking the metal

Someone stole his roof, as well. >.>

Yeah id say that $5000 is about close to right. And absolutely do not take it to a non experienced shop if you do decide to have it done. This mod is not for the basic installer or body guy. there is nothing bolt on about it. Its all welding and fabrication. Ive done 3 sets of them on trucks and hated doing every one of them and ive been building full custom vehicles for a long time. It takes alot of time and every body line needs to be perfect.

What the hell is wrong with normal doors?

I did the doors on my s10, it was a lot of work, but in the end it was worth it. It is one of those attention grabbing mods that you dont see everyday. Besides the suspension work, the doors are always what gets noticed.

The camaro doors would be such a pain in the ass due to how long they are. The biggest issue I see is bracing both the inner door skin as well as the pillar.
