I say go for it. Being unique is great.

Buying a lamborghini makes you unique... getting lambo-style doors makes you a unique wanna-be... why dont you be an individual by working with your car instead of f*cking with it

To reply to the last comment, I am sure I can answer it for him. Most of us here can't afford a Lambourghini (sp?) and that's why we drive Celicas. But we can afford to do mods here and there as we save up extra cash. So I say go for it, be original and win some shows with your Celica.

I say go for it, sounds bad azz!!
And I have been wanting to do the same.
Only thing is I cant find out how much it would cost and where to go.
Any help??

I'm not telling you to go out and buy a Lamborghini... I'm telling you to spend your hard earned money on better things for your car instead of making it LOOK like a lambo with those doors... With the amount of money they cost you can buy every single mod out for the celica, short of the XS turbo which isnt even out yet... you wanna win something... go win an autocross and see how many ppl will really respect you.

well GTS LAID.... we can see you had a ruff night last night with all you comments lately (in other topics i posted)

whats wrong - did you not get "LAID" last night ? we're you shot down and now you're pissed ? or did your "fast" celica get beat ? grow up and realize that other people have different ideas they want for their celica and who gives a rats frikk'n ass about respect from anybody else like "win an autocross"...

like i give a **** about what you think and i feel as many people can agree with me on that issue - some like to be unique and different and do their own thing

the lambo mod is only a project that will have an approximate billing of near $3k and paint will be done after that mod......for your information

and also GTS LAID....
in no way can our celica ever look like a lamborgini.... this is a non-functional mod again isn't it ? damn dude..... you just don't see the picture - OPEN YOUR FRIKK"N EYES AND REALIZE THAT OTHERS WANNA DO OTHER THINGS WITH THEIR CARS wether it be for speed or not !!!

do what you want - i'll do what i want

Ok well allow me to retort...

I didnt have a particularily rough night... maybe i'm an ass by nature but i dont think so... i dont have a fast celica.. i have a stock GTS when it comes to power mods... and i have a blown engine... and no i didnt get laid last night (maybe thats what it was)

I think i was just posting some constructive criticism... if you cant take it then you shouldnt ask for ppl's opinion and then say you dont care what i think after it doesnt come out the way you want.

I think you should do the following:
1) Thank everyone who wrote positive things just like you blasted me for my negative comments
2) try to post more constructive criticism comments if you think i should change something in my thinking instead of telling me to simply "grow up" or "open my ****ing eyes" ... I think thats what forums are for ... discussion, which doesnt always mean unanimous ageement.

And i apologize if I've posted something that offended you in other posts.. maybe i was trying to be funny and I wasnt... I dont remember the other posts to tell you the truth..

If you do ever get the mod done, please post pics of it right away, i'm interested in seeing whether its gonna look as ricey as I think.

Sincerely

It would definitely be unique and IMO that is a good thing.

You did ask for opinions, and bad or good you're going to have to accept them as opinions.

I wouldn't do it to my car. It just doesn't suit my tastes. However, if that is what does it for you go for it.

Just don't be too suprised when people get upset because $3000 can get you a lot performance mods. Don't be shocked if you get called "rice" either.

Much respect for doing the mod and being unique. I'm sure you could win quite a few car shows with this mod alone.

yeah... everyone does have there opinion on what others wanna do to the cars - whether it be riced or not (i don't get what rice means or where it came from - i'd rather say ghetto.... but slang/sayings are different in different areas)

this is the leguna BMW and basically..... use your imagination as to what the celica would look like.... eh ? i'll do some photochoppin' and see what i can make for an idea as to what this would look like

It looks like the bimmer was braking really hard and the door hinges and locks couldnt hold them shut so they flew open...

thats crazy how they can be held up like that by themselves...

it's just a re-inforced / altered door hinge with the added support from a hydrolic lifter (like for our hatch but can handle more load)

i'm gonna agree with gts_laid and go with no door conversion. not becuase it looks "ricey" i just think $3000 is a lot of money to spend to make your doors "look unique."

i am kicking myself in the ass for those not-so-good pictures i made - LET ME BE FIRST TO AGREE ...... they SUCK !!!

i'll just have to post the pics when it gets done

$3000 is way t much for that mod, hell it only cost like $400 to do the same thing to my Feiro.
I thought it was going to cost around $900 or so, but damn!! Way to much cash for somthing so lil of gain.
Buy a Modena hood for $800 like I did, at least it actualy helps both looks and Preformance. :D

But hey go for it, it will be prety cool to see. :cool:

i don't think that our doors are particularly good for this mod, our doors do not have the bar over the window, so i think that the doors would be not as strong and could damage the window easily

neither does that leguna BMW..... it is all about reinforcing the internals and support - it can be done and will be done

if you got the $, i'd say go for it...some might think it's "ricey", but you'd probably get way more positive comments on it. it would definately be one of the more unique things done to a celica yet. good luck...
