window frame on door

You know on cars like 350z or S2000 on the door, the window doesn't have a frame? Is it possible to convert the doors of our Civics to that? IMO lambo doors don't really look good on cars with frames around windows.

In theory, it could be done, but in addition to cutting the frame off the door, you'd have to figure out seals, and you may have to get new windows custom made. The stock ones may end up not being big enough. Summary: possible, but expensive.

It's like that on many cars from Lexus and Mercedes too. You'll have to find a way to make seals that press up against the glass properly and are aligned perfectly all the time too. Good luck with that.

This is going to be good... Just remember if you start you are stuck with it... If it don't work you will need new doors. If it does you the man. Either way post pics.
