No Idea I would hazard a guess it would probably be down to a specialist body shop as its a not your average bodywork type of job
Good luck & let us all see the results with some pics !

I know a couple of people have done this but it's neither cheap or easy by all accounts...

I have seen a couple done, but I don’t think either were in the U.K.

They do look pretty cool but it's big money to do because those doors are so heavy though...

That was going to be next question if anyone had had it done .Had they had any problems because of the weight of the doors

Apparently you also need to extend the wiring loom to the doors because it's not long enough when they lift. More money...

I don't see the point.
There a great space saver pity they never came as standard fit but I suspect the extra costs would make the cars less saleable price wise to a mass market sadly they won't stop the cretins from parking within inches of your cherished Z 😠

I have read somewhere that Peugeot had toyed with putting them on ,but it boiled down to cost .

I’ve seen some on a 308cc at the French car show, the actual brackets looked hideous and there were signs of damage where the door had touched the wing not nice at all and totally put me off the idea.

I saw these & I believe the A frame pillars have to reinforced to support the weight so might be a hefty invoice once finished

I would imagine that’s quite correct. The doors on the Z weigh the same as having a mini on each side. I don’t think it’s a very practical mod for the Z unless you could get someone to make a couple of carbon doors that still provided the same side impact protection. Then you really are talking an expensive mod.
