Somewhere to install vert. doors in DFW?

Does anyone know where I can get my GT vertical door kit installed in the DFW area? Don't just want anyone to 'attempt' it. Experience would be good I've called a few places who have in the past, but don't anymore. Any help would be great Thanks!

I've been looking too and haven't found any, if you find someone who will do it let me know. I have been wanting to get that done myself but I too am not just going to "attempt" it with some friends it needs to be professionally done. Did you get the kit from GT Factory?

Matters what you are wanting for professional. I have installed them on my cavalier, RX8, and solstice and i am not a professional. Also I have installed VDI kits which are bolt in kits and very easy to install.

I'd like to see how well the kit you used works with the RX8, but i'm not there anymore so blizah. Are you bringing it to the BBQ this year? I'm sure there are other people there who would want to see it.

Dude, yes, got the GT Factory one. AND, I think I found someone. I'm going to talk to him more tomorrow. He does a lot body work/mods, paint work ect. The big thing is that he's install a bunch of these kits.

uncivilracer, have you done the GT Factory kit?

I'd take them for free, but if I have that kind of cash for mods I'm doing something else, the doors never did it for me. Good luck with it though, should look pretty cool when you're done.

Thanks I hope so. I wanted to tweek everything on the outside first to keep the factory warrantee on the engine and inards for as long as possible.

As for this bbq I keep hearing about...when and where is it? I haven't been to one before, but thought it'd be fun.
