I think the Ideal look for doors of this type are the ones on the Koenigsegg CCR Supercar, instead of coming out in a wing fashon, they telescope out a bit to clear the side of the car, and sort of roll towards the front finishing in a completely vertical position, like this:

a) they look DAMN wicked, B) theyre way easier to get into, and C) they definately allow the back doors to open.

Nice fit! They look perfect! How is the clearance and do you have any issues with the door closing or opening. Also is there a kit available that will enable you to press a button to open the doors automatically?

I took the last pic to show how much room there is to get in and out.....ok here are the true fact no BS from me
From inside the car when you push the door open as far as you can"slowly" then you have to turn your body and put one leg out the door to give you leverage then with one hand on the handle and one under yourdoor tray lift...It's a little heavier then I first thought but if you can pee standing you can do it....Stays up no problem EXCEPT!!!!! when it rains. The little shock gets wet then the door seems to want to come down but you can still hold it up with very little effort and jump in..Remember these are show doors..From the outside getting in I already mastered the one arm opening right to the top. Looks very natural and no effort at all....I went to go do groceries last night parked beside a 911 and as I came out of the store buddy and his "very hot chick" were checking out my 8..So of course I opened the lambo's and blew them away...They were freaking...Its very cool....Can't beleve how much fun it is to open and close a door now.

hmm seems slightly tedious with this balancing and stuff, id have to see a video of someone doing it. the only problem i'd have is if i have to give a chick specific instructions on how to properly open and close the door and be all **** about it and such with my friends.

If the aplus guys won't answer back, i ll probably go with this kit: GTFactory Universal Diablo Door Kit which i believe is the best out there and in an excellent price...They say the only one that goes up to 90degrees up and up to 25 degrees Horizontally.
We will know for sure soon...The goos with this gt factory diablo kit is that is had more Gas Struts so its easier to lift the door and that i can buy the manual and if i am bored i can buy only the auto mechanism and attach it to the manual kit i bought..Niiiiice
