Re: suicide doors on a 2008 honda civic 4 door
Lambo doors are ricey and terrible, don't do it.
Suicide doors are very cool and I don't think they're ricey at all, but I have yet to see a kit with a reliable locking mechanism. They make universal kits, but those require cutting and welding.
fun fact: suicide doors were originally named that, because no one could figure out how to get the lock mechanism to work, so lots of old school hot rodders had their doors ripped off when they opened while driving.

On a sedan I'm a big fan of regular doors up front and suicides in back, the way old continentals were from the factory. If you do find a good kit please update the thread and let us know.
