You already bought it, so enjoy it. I probably wouldn't go out and pay to have them done, but if they were already on the car, you might as well enjoy it.

People say its played out, but I've never seen a car with lambo doors out on the street. It's played out on music videos and other such stuff, but not in real life.

What the car has done to it:
TRD Exhaust
Lambo doors
TSW low profile rims
2 12in Pioneer subs
Kenwood touch screen head unit
With all the mods I got the car for 22k, I think it was a solid deal but other opinions would be appreciated.

Within the next month I was planning on getting the TRD cold air intake, thoughts on that?

Glad to be hear!!
I'd forgo the CAI and do something else. Glad to see a very unique car on the forums.

They see you rollin'... they hatin'...

The doors are sick. They probably have a bad rep from all the ricers doing it to their Fast N' Furious Civics, but just don't rice out your car with a ridiculous paint job and/or huge ironing board spoiler and you should be fine.

I would never pay to have it on my car, but it's definitely a looker. Probably makes opening the door in tight spaces a bit easier too?

......Twag! (you get the BIG welcome splash because of your car's doors .... )

Nice looking machine; I think you done good....

I'd suggest you forget the CAI and just drop in a free-er flowing filter.

I'm a lava fan as you can probably guess. Would want to see the Buddy Club taillights with the doors. I think it works.

Thanks!! Well I've owned 2 miatas in the past, and I've always loved them. My last 4 cars though have all been turbos so going back to NA is kind of a slap to the face. Hopefully by the time I pay this bad boy off the turbo kits for it won't cost an arm and a leg

Yup, lambo doors caught me off guard too. But, to my surprise, they don't look half bad (on your car, that is).
