Has any one thought or tried to make this?

99 Mitsu Eclipse: Lambo doors + this king of doors for the back part?
I'm 100% for lambo doors, but I just had this "lightning idea " stuck my mind and I'd like to know your opinion.

PS. Can anyone try to photoshop it, so it could be visible what it gonna look like?

Thanks

Well, I already geathering all the supplys needed for lambo doors, but now I'm kinda trying to picture how its gonna look with these goors also and what do I need to do to make these doors.
Do you think I should do only on one side or both sides?

Wut do you mean "small doors"?

This many replies & I'm the only one that voted in the poll :lol:?

Personally I'd do the lambo door idea - that would be sweet!!

I think the Saturn/RX-8 door idea would be way too difficult/time consuming (though it would be awesome if you pulled it off), but that's just my :2cents:

Whichever idea you choose to do, I'm looking forward to seeing the outcome!!

OIC... Well it would be cool but very hard. But if your gonna do it more power to ya!

My personal opinion is to skip a back seat and install a speaker system and nitrous

Well I'm 100% for Lambo doors, and as far as I'm going into this thread, more I'd like to do those other doors.

I say do the lambo doors but dont do the foldout doors wouldnt look right with an eclipse, also that ram air type thing on the bumper doesnt look right either.

Put helicopter blades on top. And, and, a snow plow on the back! OH! and give it railroad wheels that flip up and down like those maintenance trucks! Yeah! And put only one seat in, and instead of nitrous, put a cute little kitty on the passenger side! Sweet! And serve it on a hamburger bun with lettuce, tomato, and relish!! WEE!

While it's a cool idea, opening doors is a very tough project in itself.
Working Lambo doors would rock!
I think the back doors would just look odd...

:p

That would be great... Does it come in any other colors than that brownish stuff?

Lambo doors, sure. Rear doors, uh, no.

Man, I was with you all the way until the relish part.

I would have to say stick with the lambo doors and let us know how you did them, you know a "how to". Leave the "extra suicide doors" to Saturn and Mazda, the Eclipse just wouldn't look right with it. Another thing that sounds intresting would be gullwing doors, like the Delorean, that would probably look good and be different, if that is what you are going for.

I think lambo doors would look alot better on a Eclipse than Gullwing doors. Besides the doors what modifications were you gonna do to it?
