Hamann equips the Lamborghini Gallardo with wing-doors

Hamann Motorsport from Laupheim, Germany, is giving the 520 hp Lamborghini a feature that is inextricably linked with the classic Countach and the more recent Diablo and Murcielago models. Without further ado, the Hamann engineers are equipping this Italian supercar with wing doors.

Hamann is relying on an inhouse wing door construction to create a stable system without being too flashy. The hinges of the Hamann wing door conversion can only just be seen, without appearing retrofitted. This ensures that the Gallardo still cuts a fine figure when getting in and out.

As one might expect, these changes call for a number of measures. In view of the end result, however, they can be regarded as extremely minimal. To complete the conversion, all that remains to be done is to blend in the paintwork along the hinges and the internal folding of the doors. The conversion is carried out at Hamann and takes about a week.

The Hamann wing doors are characterised by the fact that they open upwards at an angle. Drivers who opt for this conversion will never want to be without this wow factor! Needless to say, Hamann also offers conversions for the Spyder version and older 500 bhp models.

In addition to the wing doors for the Gallardo, Hamann also offers a whole range of tuning options for this model - in the form of aerodynamic components, light alloy wheels, suspension systems and luxurious interior equipment packages.

By the way, BMW 6 Series or Ferrari F430 owners who are thirsting for wing doors, also have something to look forward to. HAMANN is currently working on a conversion kit for these two models and their soft-top variants Cabrio and Spider.
