Don't do that, it will look like crap, I don't see any advantage of doing this. I'm shure you can upgrade something more important: engine, brake, wheel, seats, roll cage, exaust, intake, turbo. Put your money where it's efficient unless you got a totally moded rex and need that for extra show point, and event that's not that important.

ok, i didnt ask for opinions on how you like it....... i asked for info on how to do it!! i know alot of people dont like it, but i dont care, what matters to me is that i like it, i do what i do to my car because of me, not because of anybody else, if i ask for opinion on how you like it, then tell me how you like it or dislike it, but i didnt ask for your opinion, how would you like me telling you that you need to learn how to spell, because you do.....

I defend this guy and his right to ask his questions.

I disapprove of haters making meaningless comments and criticisms when not asking for it....

BUT i dont agree with multiposting the same conversation to boost your own post count.

I know I need to practice my written english man, and that for shure cause, if you didn't know, I speak 3 different language,
1 french,
2 english
3 spanish,
Now I know i donT spell every word right but somethime I read some post on H-T, that are made by born english people and I see some tremendous amout of spelling mistake. So I may not be as bad I think I am.

for your lambo dor, I've seen it many time, in car show, most people got it done by body shop but it requiere a lot of fabricating and welding. Now, I know for shure that there is some kit on the market about that, but Im not shure if I seen it done for a rex.
anyway you choose, float your own boat.

ok, the only reason that you guys see 2 posts on the same thing is because i posted this same topic on CRX/Civic section and theirs a guy their Keithv or something like that, on that section that loves closing down posts. Also loves moving them, where he thinks they belong, even if they don't belong their. so he moved it here.....

Decah probably fabricates their kits, which means if you don't buy from them, you would probably spend more in getting everything custom done and having it look clean and everything. Just buy their kit if you really want the doors to open like that.

Go to a local body shop that does custom work. I went and got an estimate on them.

Decah wanted to charge 1500 dollars just for the kit. This guy that I talked to said he could do it pretty easy for 500 bucks. Huge difference.

And once again you made another ignorant post that had nothing to do with the question at hand. The guy wanted to know what is needed to do it himself. Why don't you stop giving your opinion. NOBODY WANTS IT!!!

hey buddy i'm just trying to save him from getting laughed at by everyone because he has doors on a crx that flip up like lambo doors. IMO that is even worse than you wanting them on your integra. It is a retarted idea and you are just to ignorant to see that.

look he can do whatever he wants its his car, but i'm just trying to discourage it because it is just a waste of money that isn't contributing to the performance of your car at all. If you are gonna spend that kind of money on the appearance of your car then at least spend it on something that looks decent and not like crap.

who decides what looks good and what looks like crap???

put up a picture of your car and I guarantee that I could find something about it that I don't like that you do...

Actually the decah kit makes the doors open more like a McLaren or Mercedes CLK-GTR than it does a Lamborghini. Lambo doors swing straight up (because of the shape of the door, opening outward would be impossible, and because of the shape of most car's doors, truly opening like a Lambo would be impossible). So ummm yeah.
