Yes I believe they are only supposed to be done on the back 2 like back in I believe the 50's type Merc's and such design's. But I also could be wrong.

yes, only the back two are supposed to open "backwards" for suicide doors

One of the german tuning companies sells diablo style doors for the m3 for 13,000, what a great way to spend twice your car's value.

Man would that be awesome looking, all four doors opening upwards.

If someone can do it for $2k then dont pass it up we charge about $3500 a pair and that is still on the cheap side.

I think you would be quite lucky to get the doors to work on the back. there is no 1/4 panel to hang the lower hinge from.

how come its so expensive??

is there alot of things to be done to the door or what

also...I thought these were suicide doors??

Nope, suicide doors open backwards.

so what do you call those? i always thought they were suicide doors

Honestly, Im not sure what those are called. I have always known suicide doors opened backwards. Mabye thats just a different version of "suicide door"
