Lambo Door Under 1000$??

[c2gas]

I would like to know if you are interested on lambo door conversation kit under 1000$.
If you are, we would try to develop one in jan(and start a GB) wich would be an autolift type, not a pull up. Also the movement of the door would be more exact than on other kits.
Looking for your comments

if the price is good, i could put some hinges on my car for show purposes

[baNanA_ryCe]

sounds good. Gotta get some prototypes

[tjnacinopa]

im in.....

[c2gas]

Ok I`m starting in jan and wish to finish it as well in jan.
Any suggestion how you like the best is welcome.
Plan is: polished stainless steel, movement side and straight up, no side moves while going up, slow autolift, and hold in up position, easy force to pull down. Simple bolt on, no custom works.

Would Count shipping from Florida, The rest would be in the price.

A company here transports every week from FL to HUn and also reverse.

[J5ISALIVE]

only thing i don't see happening is the "simple bolt on" hanging a door on a car isn't exactly easy if anyone has tried it...and i don't know if the hinge will hold all that force at that angle with out welding....but i'm interested in seeing if it can be done...sounds awsome.

[Cannonbear]

good luck! :) but those kits aren't that easy to make (without fabrication and such, it can be done but ti'll take time and may end up costing more then 1000) Someoen tried it on the s2k and it came out weird and didnt sit flush.

Theres usually a reason those kits cost a lot, but all the more reason for you to prove em wrong, good luck!

[c2gas]

I started this cos I want one but a perfect, so I have to try. If we can do it may other ppl interested, but now I see trhe interest so I will try as much I can.
Will start in New year. Anyway its snowing here so I got my time.:)

Thx

(BTW: I wanted a turbo, and did it. It looks easier, so I hope it will work)

if you can make it, I will buy it.

[JCelica132]

im in definetly.......i just never thought $1,800 for a lambo door conversion was worth it, but under $1,000 i would def buy it

[cloud9spyder]

i have a kit for 1000 for sale and it is recommended to weld them on all the kits adn they have been fallign off lately

[DoubleS69]

well my email is cloud9spyder@yahoo.com email if you are interested and its not a group buy i just got sponsored so i have an extra kit and pics of it and i can get them at cost so im hookign everyon e up.... Its the season for giving

[chrissi24]

c2gas. I'm interested. Lets see what you can come up with!

[nkjs77]

C2gas,
I would be interested ... as long as there is some kind of assurance for its quality ...

[blu3smoke]

same here anyone know how much install would be?

[d3fc0n_7]

Not to come in on your prospects but I posted this on the SoCal forum ... My friend is still trying to sell his new Lambo door kit. Someone was suppose to meet up with him last Saturday but my friend said he flaked on him. PM me and I can give you his number. He's selling it for $500.

He's located here in the OC in SoCal so you can talk to him about shipping.

Good luck

[c2gas]

Hi guys, girls

Here are some news on the kit:
As I said we started to work out the prototype, and the firs structure is almost ready, it looks very promising. We had no difficulties yet, only one thing, that we recognised that its impossible to install the lambo kitt w/o turning the inside of the fender a bit back as it is needed on other kits as well.
If you want I can send some pics next week. BUT ONLY IF you notice this is the prototype. There are 2 more things missing from the structure, the `spring`( cos we only able to measure the force we need to set the spring when main structure is finished), and polish.
The structure is (as I said) made of stainless steel and will be polished for show results.

Pics on monday, thuesday

BTW: d3fc0n_7 I DO NOT AFFRAID TO COMPARE THIS KIT WHEN READY WITH OTHERS ( I`m to post pics and vids soon, latest all in 2 weeks, so you can do the same), but it is very easy to start a thread if you are trying to sell or produce anything. So just go ahead start your thread but dont **** in other ppls thread.
Well I`m really interested your qualty, cos I can imagine now how can a 500$ kit look like since we are involved.

[d3fc0n_7]

No prob ... I'm not making them or anything like that. My friend bought a kit for himself but decided not to install it and he doesn't post here so I'm just helping him sell the one kit he has. I'm not too interested in having the kit for myself but I can't wait to see pics and vids of your kit.

[TRD2000GTS]

yea for real....i would be in if the price is right.....theres no way id pay alot for lambo doors but on the other hand your auto up and better performing hinges sound good so keep me updated...i could possibly be a buyer...

[FL Honda Stompr]

ooooooo in FL, now shipping for me! IM IN!

[fleetingglimpse]

yeah I would definitely be a possible buyer if you can assure the quality with some kind of warranty and if the price is right. Keep us updated

[cloud9spyder]

who is honestly gonna give a warranty????

[c2gas]

As we are the developers, we would to give the warranty, but since the distance is big between eu and states we rather make a high quality not to have any problem with it. :)

Sending the stuff for repaire or replace here would not worth for you. But trust me, we want a high quality.

[fleetingglimpse]

well then keep me posted because if its under a grand and a quality product then count me in.

[c2gas]

Ok as far we are:

The first prototype of the frame is ready, and now we could measure what spring we need for autolift the door.

Sorry for the dirty pics, but theese are not the pics of a final product!! Also the frame is not polished and optimized.
We are planing to have the ready product the end of this month latest. No spring yet.

im sorry i just wouldnt put that on my car..

i used to like these doors and they look awesome on this car, but they're getting overplayed

[tjnacinopa]

looks promising ... can't wait for the final product!

Hope everything goes smoothly on this, I love those doors on the celi!

[fleetingglimpse]

Are you going to incorporate a lockout device for people who show their cars and have the doors up for a while? Just for a little extra support.

[c2gas]

Hy everybody!

I just want to let you know that we still working on it. The first frame of the structure was ready when I posted the pictures, but I have to say we are not at the end. It was easy to make the kit as other companies, but its not easy to make it rigid. As you know I want the doors to move as less shake as possible, and I`m still not happy with it. So we are trying to solve the problem, but that may take some time. Actually we are keeping the plan. We want to finish the prototype in jan and start the sales or a GB in febr.

So theese are the news, rather good or bad. ;)
I will inform you soon again.
Gas

BTW: the doors open as much as possible for easy access, and holds in up position for long time easy. ( the gas spring uses most of the force to lift the doors, but there is no need for big force to hold it in open position).

[S|Lv3rBu||et]

Look great man! Keep it up!

[highgrade00]

looks good! for such a low price i would def. consider the mod

[nkjs77]

Thank you for keeping us posted. ^^

Looks pretty cool.

That looks really promising! Awesome work man. I'd definitely be in if it all goes thru. Keep us posted with your progress man.

[mtskibum16]

I may be in if everything works out well. Keep us updaited. Thanks.

[c2gas]

Thanks for all your interest!
Next week we have our deadline so update is coming soon. I could tell you more by now, but I want to make some vids to see. Pics will tell you more then words. And its easier to decide.

[bickley]

[c2gas]

Ok. So prototype is ready. We are waiting for the right gas springs. The current one is undersized, so it would not lift the door. I`m promised that they are ready begining of next week.

The frame is raf now, as a prototype, so we make now the final look untill the springs arrive.

The frame is made off stainless steel, but it seems that we have to change some part for carbon steel, cos the stainless is too soft. That part would be unvisible but powdercoated. the arm would stay stainless steel.
here are some vids:

final price??? and approx. installation costs???

[Korben007]

you got my attention!

[c2gas]

Originally posted by highgrade00

Sorry I cant help you in install costs, that is allways a local problem. But if you have hour rates lets calculate 2 hours for installation.
I think the best deal would be for everyone to start a GB on it. For example I would keep the unit price at 1000$ but if there are 5 buyers then jump down 7% and if there are 10 buyers an other 7% again. So there could be a SERIOUS 860$ per set. THIS IS JUST EXAMPLE COS FINAL CALCYLATION WAS NOT DONE. I CAN TELL YOU EXACT PRICE IN A WEEK. AND ALSO FINAL MOVIES.
A few thing is sure, that we can do it under 1000$, and I want to give great discounts if bigger amount would be sold. Not just 10$ discounts.

[cEmO18]

Sounds GREAT!!! i can't wait :drool:

[Avenge2c]

OMG! I'd give you my first born but he's a bit of a brat so I guess you'd preffer hard currency, euro good for you? Seriuosly I want these :) Do you have to mod the fender of do anything to get it to fit and work correctly? I notice in the video it sounds kinda raspy? I assume this will be fixed on the production piece's?

[02blueceli]

looks nice , good job

[tjnacinopa]

can't wait... lokks great.... somebody start a GB on this to take advantage of the discount!

[evil eye]

wont that be some excessive shipping cost from Hungary to the US? would the GB price include the shipping cost? I'm curious.

[Dragncrosmember]

Man if I dind't dump so much into the down payment on my Celi I would grab those in a second......

Fenders have to be rolled back, cos nothing would fit between the fender and the door.
Will post install pis as well.

Shipping to Florida will be calculated in the price. Dont worry, we keep it at the price.

[cEmO18]

I am assuming that this is a reversible installation right? What i mean is if at any point we wants to go back to stock, we can just unbolt everything and put the orginal stock parts on right? Might be a stupid question but just wanna make sure. :)

[NP_gts]

looks great

[c2gas]

OK ppl.
Before I post new vids next week, I let you know that the springs have arrived and it works great.
Can I have a question?
Could someone take care of the GB?
It would be great to know how many kits needed.
lets count the unit price 1000$ now and I ll give you the calculation next week for 5-10-20 buyers.
PLS someone do this part for me, and I do the product side.

PS: Do you want it to autolift or just slight force to open and close? Its just the question of the spring. Both can be made.

THX A LOT

I'll run it for you gas. just give me more info PM me. Yo we gots to hook this up asap on my car dogg. I need to finish this shoot to send out to Supee Street ASAP. Theres a guy over there that's very interested in the car. Any hookups ;) ?

how's the progress going c2gas?

[mac&cheese]

I CANT WAIT!!!! boy oh boy this are gonna be sOOOOO hot especially with auto lift!!!! yes please let us know as soon as you can as im very interested and will definitly be in:)

[c2gas]

Just finishing.

Minor problem that the stronger spring did not arrive. So I cant make vids from the autolift, just the manual lift.
Manual lift means you open it with 1 finger.
I make some vids today, and post them later.

[H-town Superman]

post your interest in the gb interested thread, so c2gas can give us a set price.

[H-town Superman]

Prices and info is up in the interested forum.

[c2gas]

Hy PPL!
Thx for all your comments, and thx to superman starting to count interested ppl.
I`m posting now 3 more vids, but I really have to appologise you ppl cos we will have a delay. Th delay cosed of a wrong order on gas springs, it means currently we don`t have the right spring for autolift. And we really have to have a correct measured spring before we order 20 pairs for your kits. The problem is that theese springs are custom made and our suplier only pruduce them in two weeks, so we have to wait that f..g 2 weeks for f..g springs.
So here are som vids may tell you more what I mean and to see where we are.
thx

i'm interested, but would it be costly if it's shipped to canada?

[tlminh]

how close is it to stock location, ie what happens if it rains or if i wash my car, will there be any gaps/leaks?

I`m not going to let out the product untill it`s not 100%. I`d rather cancell it if its not possible, then have a bad reportation.
We just stuck at 90% for now.

[fleetingglimpse]

I noticed the shakiness of the door when raising up, in vid 3, is there any way that can be lessened?

[H-town Superman]

very nice new price in the group buy interest forum. check it out

Newest update, after final settings today still w/o the right springs. ( also done some work on the site).

Gas

[cEmO18]

seems like there is alot of shaking when the door is up. Hopefully this will be fix before the product goes on sell.

[mac&cheese]

looks very hot...cant wait for it to be ready and way cheaper than the current ones too...hope it isnt too heavy to lift though cause some of the decah kits are just heavy as **** to lift from the inside. if the shocks were stronger than that'll be much better:)

[evil eye]

that girl lifted the door up with one hand and no effort, I think you'll be OK.

[H-town Superman]

Newest Video's, price and limit are posted in the interested thread.

[H-town Superman]

the deposit will begin to be taken once c2gas has finished the product and it is 100% ready and been tested. So I'll keep you up dated. just keep checking the first post of info.


REMEMBER EVERYONE THIS PRICE IS ONLY FOR THE FIRST 15 PEOPLE! AFTER THAT ANY GB WILL BE MORE MONEY!

HE IS DOING IT First 15 on both sites here and everythingcelica.com and I checked their list and they have like 23 so those people might come over here and jump on this gb. since it is only for a total of 30 people 15 here and 15 over there.

[H-town Superman]

Updated installation guide. (it's for a decah hinge) but is shows what is needed for rolling the fender. So check out the interested forum.

[Brine504]

:applaud: :applaud: :thumbup: :thumbup: :drool: :drool:
Wow..... All that I think could be improved would be the shaking when it comes down. Using a gas spring would deffinitely help the raising of the door. That is great!

[Armo]

has anyone bought this kit yet? What price is it working out at?

I am real interested!!!

[Zacks02GTS]

C2GAS... COUNT ME IN.. I HAVE BEEN LOOKING INTO THE DECAH KIT FOR A WHILE NOW..AND I HAVE DECIDED THAT I WILL GO WITH YOURS...SO COUNT ME IN .. THANKS:headbang:

[AK GTS]

Has anyone seen other verticle door kits? I'm just wondering it they all shake back and forth a little when rising? Not a huge deal, I still like the doors, but I've never seen any other's so I don't know if others are any different.

[agular9]

This discussion was moved to the thread in the intrest group buy section of the forums... jump on the list before it's too late. Price will probably go up after first group buy.
