But doing it right was to much effort, as with many aftermarket parts. There is such a thing as compound hinges that can move the door in two different axes. Here's an example, the door has to pop out beside the car before rotating up:   Maybe it uses a hydraulic to pull the door in after it's lowered past a certain point, I dunno. But it's not ghetto like the aftermarket kits are. Kinda hard to sell a supercar with ghetto doors. Now on the scissored lambos, you're right, the car is designed so the door drops down into place. The Corvette kit hinges up but in order to clear the car it has to open the door partway, which makes it look like a giant insect when the doors are sticking up and slanted outwards at a wierd angle. |
