LOL yeah I see what your saying. I have seen them on 4 door cars front vertical and back suicide. It looked really good. Some of the ones I seen actually have gas struts to hold them up.

i bought the full kit for my f150 lightning was about$1500 they looked great and worked very well i think it was a vertical doors kit they had the gas shockers too. they do need alittle adjusting from time to time and you do have to teach all your friends how to use them so they dont cause any damage!!! for a dd they are a hassle but great for a weekend or show car.

Spooldyou, I would be carefull if I were you. Ever see Candyman?


Lol, J/K. Back on topic, I don't think it would look good. One of those backwards opening hoods might be cool though.

I would not do it. Why?

Dangerous, as amby said.
Hassle for daily driving
You WILL get laughed at, maybe not to your face....but people (myself included) would think you had no taste and/or you are a ricer.

The problem with both is that they are better for 2 door cars.

God that would be wild looking on this car, especially dropped with some nice wheels. Just don't put some purple, or any color for that matter, light under the car. lol

I think they would look good on this car Vertical/Gullwing but I do agree that they would be a hassle as a daily driver= Showcar=

Everyone I've known who's done a similar conversion has really gotten tired of it after a while. The were all daily driven and not dedicated show cars though. As mentioned before, you have to be quite careful with them as to not damage anything.

I've seen some that look great and some that just look silly. If it's what you want, go for it.
