Suicide doors?

Oks o a ton of people on here have the lambo doors (and honestly I am a fan of them) but I dont know of anyone who has done suicide doors. My question is, what do you all think of these and would these be possible (obviously a professional would do it since heavy modding would need to happen)? I found this kit:

So Im just curious what everyone's opinions are on this. Not sure if it would look good on a 2 door car or not.

I don't think it would work. I'm not bashing the idea or anything like that, I mean physically I don't think it could work with how the camaro's doors are designed.

I HATE the vertical/lambo doors. These are different and I would be interested to see them. That kit is a joke though. If you wanted to do this it would take a good customizing shop a few weeks and I'm guessing a few thousand dollars, probably close to 10 grand to do it right.

Anything is possible if you throw enough $$$ at it, that I can guarantee you.

I say leave the Lambo doors on the Lambos and Suicide Doors on the streetrods. My opinion is neither belong on any American muscle car.

Yea, i garantee you that Bently does NOT have that kit, LOL. I personaly don't hate on too much stuff. If you spend money on it and it's what you want, then it's cool. BUT, I don't really dig the 40 inch rims and all that. I saw a Green 2010 Camaro with 30s on it. Terrrible.

This was posted somewhere else before too. It's a great idea but you lose too much structural integrity on side impacts from this set up.

He started out wrong saying there are tons of folks here that have lambo doors.

If they were popular you'd see them all over. Only a few like them and install them.
