Lambo alignment prob
Saturday, May 19, 2007 6:16 PM
I'm new to this so people please don't bang me up the first try. I just bought a lambo kit off of a guy on ebay http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/VERTICLE-DOOR-KIT-KITS-LAMBO-DOOR-1995-2004-CAVALIER_W0QQcmdZViewItemQQcategoryZ36475QQihZ018QQitemZ280115462184QQrdZ1QQsspagenameZWDVW (which was my first mistake) which said he had a shop in georgia. They were supposedly a bolt on kit for the car, but I had to do some modifications to get them to fit. After I got them to fit and everything, I cannot for the likes of me get my door to seal in the front. I tried the taping and the somebody leaning against it. But when it opens it seems like it has slack in it. It opens and closes fine though. Has anybody had this problem or how do you align them properly? Lambos look so sweet on the car but I think I'm gonna have to trash this kit . (knew i should have spent the money on performance). So guys, let me have all your suggestions. Thanks

Just keep trying... you may need a grinder to makes things better.

I know how you feel. they look good but a pain in the but. I forgot what magazine I was reading. the first thing was to take off the fenders and then put strips of tape around the door and put a little square piece of wood or something to fit between the door gaps so when you take off the stock door hinges the door will stay in place. Then you put on the lambo kit and so on. I hope this is kinda of helpful. J bodies roll out

I dropped a TON on a kit..and had the same problem....nothing I could do. I had to give in and give up....and after all the troubles I went through, I'll never try lambos again...

mine did not want to seal on the top up the pillar.
I said screw it and took them off. All my wires were being pulled tight also!

Well, I did the same. After about a week of messing around, I said F@#& it!! I was having the same problem teknik with the sealing prob. And CodeZero, the hinges I got looked just like the second set you got. They looked sweet on the car but I don't want 'em if they won't seal. If I try lambos again I'll go with VDI but I seriously think I'll spend the money on other parts.

Jubal...the second set...Those are identical to the VDI ones...I think they might actually BE VDI...but Xtreme Doors won't admit to it.

I have the VDI kit which looks almost like that. I see a few differences. I had to work with them for a few days to get them perfect. Passenger went on perfect, but the drivers side took forever to adjust to what I wanted. Just give it time if you really want them. I almost gave up a few times.
