yep, i need blueprints or hinges, and i don't have the money to buy hinges, i would need someone's hinges for like a 2 or 3 week period, long enough to blueprint them, and i'm not in this to make money, i mean yes sorry to say I will make some profit, heres a quick example..

Hinge costs me $50, i'll charge $65, so I would make like $30 for a set lol, i just wanna make these in production and bang them out....

hinges should be direct bolt on, but from everything i know about how lambos are, definitly get them tack welded atleast on....you will need to either spend $250 on a roller (bang out the fender with a hammer) or pay a body shop to roll your fenders, i have never seen a kit that doesn't need the fenders rolled so thats not quite possible.

I don't know the exact dimensions needed but someone could look into pricing for actuaters (sp) so you can have motorized lambos....I'm just producing the hinge (the most crucial part lol)

you can remove the fenders without damaging them. they are bolted on, so they can be simply unbolted and put aside while the lambo hinges are installed.

lol no, ofcourse you remove the fenders during installation, but you gotta roll them before you put them back on

Here is what needs to be done when you install the lambos:
The inside BEHIND your fenders need to be heated then hammered and also you need to take a grinder to them...You also DO need to get the inner side of your fender cut because when the door goes up it bends your fender out where the hindge comes up...Other than that they are just bolt...Their is no other way of installing them with out this...Most shops wont bang the inside for you because its the main structure and they hate touching that..You can do it yourself and save the money....hope this helps

Blue prints would be no good...because when i got the hindges their was a bunch of stuff that i had to chnage....the bolt patternts and stuff....also where the hitch is possishiond......I have one last peaice to weld then i can get them replicated....Im just not going to pay a welder $150 ...so im either going to wait untill spring break when my welder friend comes back to finish the job...or take it down in a month...one of the two
