Lambo Doors

[w14ntd]

got big plans in mind for my leon. going for the reloaded bodykit on 18" chrome alloys and finished off in petrol blue.. just wondering if anyone has lambo door conversion on a leon and if so where did they get them from as the prices i have seen are very VERY high ( in the region of £1500 )

thanks in advance

1500 doesnt sound too bad though mate, look at the effect - awesome!

TBH lambo doors are creeping into Max Power territory, like Lexus lights, if you ask me and can't help thinking it just wouldn't look good on a Leon.
Need something exotic to pull it off........

i think i'd have to see them on to judge really however to be in max power territory would be to make them out of plastic, poorly fitted with a kenwood sticker down the side! saying that, when i was 17 i had a max power subsription! well it was 97'!

What's the reloaded bodykit? Don't most of the aftermarket jobbies end up making a LEON looking like Darth Vadar's helmet (the one on his head lol)?

yeah lol it doesnt look like a leon. and to be honest im not sure how im going to feel about it.. but im 19 i got nothing else to save up for lol and thought why not be different with a leon. its a diesel so i cant go for power. i had sound systems but i dont want to be deaf. and around where im from ( bradford ) its all about Golfs and A3's and i wanted something different. WAYYYY different. i was going to be spending £2k on the bodykit fitting and spraying the full car petrol blue. with spacers and chromes looking at £2500. lambo doors would push me up to £4k! im sure i can live with the doors opening normally at that price.. lol

To me, the appeal of a Leon is its understated looks.
Lairy Lambo doors only belong to a Lambo, they would even look silly on a Ferrari.

its a diesel so i cant go for power.

u want to rethink that one, what diesel is it anyway??? a simple remap will boost your power a lot

 

[elliott87]

this is sounding like a perfect recipe of how to ruin a leon

 

[w14ntd]

its a 110bhp - remap id be looking around 140 mark. fmic exhaust and all the rest wouldnt really be a power mad car.. i have enough time for that in the future. just by a petrol instead. as for ruining the leon - dont like it dont do it - my taste not yours

anyone seen this site? http://turborevs.org.uk/ does lambo kits and suicide doors for the back but would anyone recommend universal as i heard its pretty crap

That makes the front look like an MG, why on earth would you want to look like those PoS

As for the Lambo doors - on a 5 door car - no no no no no no no no NO!

if you 'REALLLY' wanna be different and first go ahead and make up my favourites

'Suicide Doors'

 

[w14ntd]

i was thinking suicide doors on back lambo on front. im still deciding. need to get the money. its going be a long project was looking at the end of the year as i have a few other things going atm but when i do it want it all doing at once

as you say your 19 dont waste your money on a bodykit and lambo doors for 4k you could hybrid your car and that would give you circa 250bhp and 400lbft of torque and still have some change or just save the money for a better car when insurance doesnt become so much of an issue, im 20 and iv got a 130 tdi and i can keep up with my friends that have mk4 gti's (150 bhp) but if i get a remap i will just about be able to keep up with a cupra (180 bhp) but the reason why i bought i diesel is because i needed it for the mpg

fair play.. and i just got priced up £2500 - lambo doors bodykit paint chromes all in basically which isnt too bad. the power would be a good option but then id always have a petrol that would be faster. when i go for the power option i was realistically looking at a 4wd monster i.e subaru or evo and i was wanting around the 300bhp mark. to have a diesel with that much power ( and i love diesel lol ) is just a bit silly with it being that loud in my opinion. hmm i am thinking twice though considering that. but then the other thing would be handlingand braking if i was to go for power and then once you get the potential you get bored as you have nothing else to do.

Its torque that makes you accelerate not bhp....a remapped TDI will be pretty rapid even against a petrol

 

[w14ntd]

yeah my mate remapped his 110 and he raced a a3 140bhp and was nothing in it. and my mistake i just realised mines a 90bhp.. i could get 120 i reckon. my mate had a 150bhp diesel bora and that gave a cupra a good run! was only a car's length in it! but realistically i dont know where to start lol im not the type to do it myself id drop it off at the garage with the bits and say get on with it ! i had a astra diesel before this which was 70bhp standard and with a remap and filter derestricted airbox and lighter racing wheels it was beating a standard 110bhp leon by quite a distance
