Don't do it. You might like it for a few weeks but they will be as popular as spinner wheels within a few months.

^^^
Those arent suicide doors, those are lambo doors. I dont really like lambo doors on the sedan, unless you go all out VIP style.

With the 4 door, if you put suicides on the front.. that would look really tacky IMO and you wouldnt be able to do just the rear because of where the back of the door meets with the wheel well.

I've never seen em on a G sedan. It's probably just a universal bracket, which IMO is cheap. If you're going to do it, make sure its a vehicle specific kit.

Sure.
Thanks for the props

To be honest, I thouht about it. I even have a friend who owns a body shop and would help me do it for almost nothing. In my opinion it does not fit the look of the car. The G sedan is too sporty for something like that. If I had a 7-series BMW or Bently I would do it. I just think it does not fit the style.

That is my $0.02. It's your car and you can do what ever makes you happy.

I do not consider the RX-8 a "sedan". It's more of a 2+2 and the design of the car included that type of door.
