I've looked into it before and there is no such thing as a direct bolt on kit for lambo doors for an FTO, no matter what the company will tell you. I was in contact with the fella in the UK who is making the roadster, he installs lambos for a living, and he ended up taking them off the roadster as they did nothing but cause him problems. Lambos are not meant for a car that is getting constant use, they are for show cars only, the hinges are not up to the job unless they are designed by the correct people, ie Lambo engineers, Keoningsegg engineers, people that are paid a fortune to do it. The kits you buy online for the FTO are actually Evo hinges and you end up modifying them yourself to make them fit properly and work properly. The other thing to watch is the strength of the hinge, if the hinge isn't strong enough the door will just fall back down as soon as it lifts, cheaper is not the best option and if you want to make them work it will be to get someone who has installed a lot of them and knows what they are on about, and therefore expensive.
