there is no kit for it. it is a custom modification.

There is a company that makes similar kits, and they don't have one for the 4th gen hatch or 2nd gen CRX yet, but they say they're working on it:

Wrong again. Gull-wing doors open straight upward from hinges direcltly above the door (i.e. Delorean). Lamborghini doors are Jacknife doors - a single hinge under the side mirrors allow the doors to open on a slant, upwards but towards the nose of the car. I remeber seeing a custom PT Cruiser that had suicide jacknife doors, very interesting...
