I have just placed an oder for Lambo Style doors for my530i 04' they are still in development but i should have them by next month. There is no welding needed or anything they bolt right on to the factory bolts...2 hour install is what they say. The cost for the door hinges is arounf 2500.00 US currency. Whatdo you all think about this, should i or not??? Below is a pic of a new 645i witht them done already...let meknow what you all think

They look very nice but is it easy to get in/out of the car? Another words, are they practical?

It seems to work on a two-door. Do you have a photo of how it would look on a four door?

It would definitely be one of a kind. Actually, I saw one of those doors on a Civic which definitely was different. Seen pictures on the internet of the doors on a 300C. Looked ok. The website I saw some pictures on was www.decah.net I think that it would make you car stand out

It would definitely be unique. I guess it would look pretty exotic on an e60. I've seen it on an SL600 and it does look sweet.
