I opened my doors

Hello everyone! This post is for all the people that are skeptical about my hinges I sell at www.customxmodsparts.com
I am finally going to reveal my Supra. I have not painted or finished the body yet so please take that in consideration. That is why some of the edges look rough.


Here it is closed:

I will give a complete tutorial when I finish the other door. In order to make this mod happen you have to use 4 of the hinges that I sell. Don't worry I sell them in packs of 5 so if you screw one up there is an extra.
Well, I hope thsi shows everyone that I do know they work.
Thanks guys

While the cut is way rougher than I'd let show on my car, I've been waiting for some time for someone to make openable doors a possibility. Great job, this ought to be an extremely popular modification for those with taste.

Here is a civic I just finished hinging.
Notice this is not just the doors. I have hinged the hood and trunk as well.
It is rough. I do plan on doing the same thing as the supra above.
Thanks,
cXp
