little update on this  
Don’t buy cheap lambo door kits off ebay they are junk sloppy junk no fun making these work proper.

But wanted them in before we finish on the paint so in they go. Installations starting @ $800 depending on the kit. notice the extra support welded in the black bracket will also have extra support and be welded. Extra support added to the door and bolted to the door not welded in case the door ever needs to be removed. Will keep posting on this project.

your not kidding I hate them the customer wanted them he got em bought the junk set off ebay best we can do is install them right adding a ton of support so the problems are minimal in the future. Me I think the first good gust of wind he’s gonna bend the door metal. We put a bunch of steel in there and are not short stepping the job but I still see him screwing up his paint. We are even gonna add handles to make closing the door easier from the inside. Hey can’t tell nobody nothing sometimes.
