I take it you're looking for something like this.




From this guy's website

Here are pictures of my new (Lamborghini-Like) Doors. They were created by Formula 1 located in Northridge, CA.

The doors have their own battery, and are run using a hydraulic pump. The doors open at the push of a button. The custom made hood was also created by Formula 1.

The cost will be multi thousands of dollars. If you want unique doors, I suggest shaving the handles and getting remote controlled solenoids to pop them open. Equally cool. Thousands of dollars cheaper.

they keep calling those gull-wing doors, but they're actually scissor doors. Gullwings are the ones on DeLoreans, Bricklins, and classic Mercedes 500 SELs that pivot from the center of the roof to lift the door up.

Contrary to popular belief these gull-wing doors don't require more room to open, in fact they take less as the vertical height if the door is less than the length and the arc of swing takes the door up and out of the way above the roof.

They look snazzy but cost beaucoup bucks to custom-fabricate.
