Default Ebay auction

I thought this was funny after reading many posts where the experts such as Visionz have said this is pretty much impossible on tibs.. ebay

sorry if this is in the wrong place Random.

Peace

Did you remark how the car in the pics looked like a Tiburon ? In less than a month, we'll see this "mod" for a Lanos, I'm sure of it. It's the same thing as the flip trunk kit.

I wouldn't buy that if I were you...

Ok, i just read my post again.. and it can come the wrong way... i meant that it is funny because i believe Visionz and everyone that says it is impossible.. im not saying its funny because they have been proven wrong... i dont believe this for a second, it is about as good as that new nitrous kit on ebay LOL

Peace

I think I saw a Red Green episode where he modified a car for this style of door on the cheap. Involved a garage door opener, as well as the usual complement of duct tape etc.

Damn...that's pretty freaking funny. I emailed the seller and wanted to see what kind of information he would give about it. I explained how this procedure isn't exactly something that can be done on a tib without either cutting up the car and making it look like a vegetable on wheels, or without a Bill Gates fortune.

It just really cracks me up when people say:

how to convert your TIBURON doors into vertical style doors for dirt cheap, less than the cost of a set of rims/tires.
If someone believes that, then ummm...well....I feel sorry for you and your car. sad.gif Anyway, I look forward to the sellers reply. He probably won't give me any information without paying the 8 dollars. *ha ha* rolleyes.gif
