I would hate to see someone get t-boned with those doors installed, no protection whatsoever.

But it does look good on a show car

Yes but if it gets hit hard enough it doesn't bend...it shatters. So in the accident case if the car is coming hard enough and it hits the side instead of bending as metal would which the doors will shatter and your getting the full force of that bumper into your side .

^ Your not sol either way, and if you do these doors on a street car then you and your money easily part ways. Paying lots of money to make your car look like **** and greatly decreasing your safety.

If you do these doors on a street car you are an idiot and darwin will be after you. I also feel sorry for the people who don't know any better and decide to ride in your car.

There is a reason that every car sold in america 2007 and after must have side air bags standard.

Not trying to be a dick, but a rude awakening is what you need if you're actually considering that.
