you need to get a little more specifice before people are going to be able to help you out with this, this is not an easy project to do on your own either

you have a lot of work ahead of you

You will need to role both fenders, extend all the wires from the door to the car unless your kit came with a pre fab. horness.

Good luck on the task @ hand.

I think your asking for trouble and problems with this kit. Personally I would skip trying to install it.

Me Again..

Okay I know about rollin' the fenders....but How exactly do you do that...you see I am in the military and on base there is an Auto Hobby shop where they let you use all there equipment and they help you....it's only 2.50 an hour so I thought it would be cheaper than paying someone $700 to do it. The kit comes with the Wiring extensions though so that is a good thing. Anything else???

Considering the kit you purchased is a weld in type kit, it is also probably of low quality. I don't recommend attempting to install this kit yourself, and I wouldn't bother installing it at all.

The only Lambo Door kit I've seen that was strong enough for a daily driver is the LSD kit. At least with the LSD kit, your vehicle can be returned back to stock for resale value.

Rolling fenders involves bending the inside lip of the fender up as to allow for more wheel/tire clearance in the wheel well.

I have no idea why you would need to roll your fenders for a Lambo Door installation unless the kit was poorly designed and not for the Chrysler 300 at all.

19. Without bolting on, place fender on the car. Open the door to check for fender clearance fromthe door kit hinges bracket.
20. Reshape or roll the edge of the fenders if more clearance is required. This step is required for most cars.


Above are steps 19 and 20 for installing the kit....as you notice in step 20 it says "roll the edge of the fenders if more clearance is required".....The kit that I have purchased is just a Universal Kit, it says that it fits all vehicles with small modification to some, I take it that my Vehicle might be one of those...Damn Doors...lol, any more advice besides by a new kit???
