Mine has lambos. Dumb. Don't do it. You'll catch hell. And I promise once you get them, you'll regret it. Go suicide. More support from two hinges. No offense, but use the search button. Lol.

Eh, why would you want lights there? Seems kinda tacky, in my opinion. But it's your car!

Suicide only seen Robby. Lambos are ok if the doors don't have the window frame like an 03 eclipse would look alot better then aleros would

The title certainly made me panic a little.... then I saw it was in "alero appearance" THANK GOD

Ok.... now that my heart rate is back to normal... lets get to work here.

Suicide doors are certainly do-able on our cars. Lambos are a no-go. Our doors are too heavy. The lambo hinges wear out in time. (that time being a year or two) Then they don't seal properly and leak.

But yes, there was only one suicided alero in our history (that we know of) and it was aftermath (robbie). Not to be confused with Aftermathalero (richie) who didn't have modded doors.

poor choice of title
but does anybody have any pics of the suicide doors on the alero?
and do you know why our doors weigh like a gajillion pounds

because they are made of metal, are huge and have heavy, metal components in them.

Wasn't there another one besides Robbie? One that was under construction in the for sale section??

doing suicide doors would require a ton of work as in shaiving the door handles welding in new hinges,installing a new type of door latch, and most importantly making every thing work properley and fit right, so I think you are in way over your head.

I've done suicide doors on an s10. It's really not as hard as people make it sound. Don't let someone tell you that you are in over your head. Unless you honestly don't know how to weld, cut, and other stuff like that. Then you may be.

Yep. That's Robbie's. But that is a total different one in my link, right?

I agree. I really wouldn't mind it... BUT... the work is well beyond my skillset.

The third pic is when it was back in the shop before it got stolen. If I remember correctly that is with a full custom tube frame front end......otherwise you can't go that low....

Suicide and Lambo style doors are both incredably stupid. Why not just get "attention whore" tatooed on your forehead instead?

I think it takes the right vehicle, and the alero is not one IMO....
