It's interesting, but not something I'd have on a 4 door. Wonder how long before the weight stress causes hinges to wear; anyone remember the door drop on the 70's coupes & utes?

The kits ive seen come with heavy duty gas struts, so not to sure how long they would last.

Probably real. I just don't see the appeal, I would be embarrassed getting into my car if any of my doors did that.

It looks ok, I'd stop and look at it at a show. However, there is no way I'd rice my own car like that.

I replaced lots of toyota sera struts to allow for intrusion bars and sound systems.
these last a few years before they need a gas top up. there was also electric door kits available. I know of plenty or owners that unload passengers in the middle of the street in case they open the door on the curb.

My guess is someone made too much money in the mines and couldn't think of anything smart to spend it on....
