Default Lambo Doors (92-96)

I recently put sum lambo doors on my 92 Prelude. Not really happy with how they came out as far as the gaps in between the door and fenders and also the dents on the fender from 1 of the bolts on the hinge. I've read around that a few ppl have had this problem so I figure this be the best place to get more info on any1's solutions to this.

Dude i'm really sorry, that doesn't sound good .. i hope you can find a solution .. othetwise go back to stock .. just leave the lambo doors for the exotics .. Nsx's don't got on them (maybe next gen) and they still look exotics ... our Ludes are beautiful without them!
But good luck!

what kit do you have? I have a more noticeable gap between the door/fender. Nothing horrible but still larger then it was stock. You can prolly align the door to minimize the gap.

Also there is no way you should have dents on the fender from the kit, the bolts are soooo far away from the outside of the fender it would never hit. Unless of course you didnt roll the inside of the fender when you put the kit on. Then the arm could come in contact with the fender pushing it out some

I figure out how rolling the fender could effect the body kit fitment?

Body fittament is based on where the door is aligned at. It has multiple holes to bolt into and can be slid slightly in various directions causing the door to be out of alignment making it a poor fittament.

The dents in the fender could be caused by the fact that the fender isnt rolled and when the door is opened it pushes out on the fender causing dents or additional spacing between door and fender

I know all of that...the fender rolling I'm referring to is the kind if you're going to tuck your wheels. And if you align things properly (around the door area) you shouldn't have to roll your fenders in that way.

You roll a different part of the fender. You roll the part closest to the door where it runs vertical I'll take pics later
