Hi, I'm new here. I have a 95 Civic EX Coupe and I bought a verticle door kit and i want to know, is it possible to shave the door handles and use poppers with the verticle door kit?

Anything is possible with enough custom fabrication, time and cash. The real question is do you want it bad enough?

But I dont see why not....

Easier to do window rolldowns poppers tend to eventually be problematic with time. or you could do both.

Hold off on the installation of the lambo doors. Take a look around HT and I bet by the time that --&gt; DrifteR8969 has been a member for 0 days reaches 30 you'll have them posted on ebay

Ill second that, with the amount of money and time spent in those doors you can find a lot better mods to do to your ride.

Yes you could use both. One the door pops enough you just pull it up. But like mentioned i would go with the windows roll down. I had a customers car with door poppers and sometimes the door was to heavy to open. And with lambo doors its more pressure, but with the window roll downs you have the window down and put your arm in and lift.

With that kind of money, save it for later on in life. Like when you go to college and if you ever want to move out on your own. Blowing all on your car is really pointless, unless you plan on making all your money with it, or plan on living out of your car. But hey, if you want to do that, go for it.

Just because some of you drive a stock a-- Civic doesn't mean he has to or wants to.

If you go this far, why not install an motor to make the door pop, then go up vertically on its own? That's what I would do.
