I don't think the Gallardo, and for that matter, the later Huracan had vertical doors to begin with. Vertical doors are still found on the Aventador and most other supercars like it.

Was that rice? Or creatively bending the rules to increase spring rate while staying technically legal?

No it is not. Any alteration made for true race or track purposes is not rice.
The cut spring applies to those with their Civic or Neon sedans that want to pretend. I have a new neighbor that is the very definition of a ricer with his 12 year old Neon all chopped up.
