If you rolled a car, more often than not the doors won't open anyway, as for the original question I wouldn't be brave enough to trust anything with the weight of my doors :wink:

I've done shaved door handles, but put a push button on top of the door rather than using poppers. Talk to a certifier first as the rules get interpreted differently as to whether you need mechanical opening and you will need cert if you shave the handles.
As for the lambo door "kits" I'm yet to see a kit that makes the car easy to get into and out off when open, most try to take chunks out of your head. If you are doing it for visual impact, it is getting pretty old and everyone will know you just bolted it on anyway. Personally I would look into suicide doors using the mirrors as handles, but not sure if the pillars on your car would take the weight. I did seriously consider this myself, but I've already blown way to much money.

i dont think suicide doors suit the shape of the car.... but thanks for the idea:)
