Well the calipers are yellow and the interior is red which I like but I would have gone with red calipers to tie it together. The front rotors are red and the back rotors are stock which just doesn't look right to me but hey its not my car....

It's everyone's personal opinion. I think the doors look great on the car, and definately not on a 2008 Focus! In my artistic opinion, lol, the red calipers tie in well with the interior and red on the Z06 emblem, as well as the paint color making the contrast less intense. All I would do is paint the flag emblem black and tint the side markers to stand out less.

+1, this is the kind of car where I see those doors as an upgrade.

+1. The contrast between the two colors looks great.

I think it looks great on the C7 escpecially with that red leather on the door. Red interior, red calipers on the dark grey, looks awesome!

At the end of the day, it's his car....and that's all that matters. As many above have said, I think it suits the car, and it looks good. Is it my cup of tea? No, not really.

That being said, it's guys like him that help make it possible for our Camaros to keep getting built. Without people willing to spend big money on these types of cars, we'd be Toyota....

For some reason, I don't dislike them as much as I expected to, I guess they kind of blend in with the reverse opening hood and big liftback. His I-don't-want-to-scratch-the-interior excuse is semi-valid, I'm about 6'2" with a size 12 shoe, and if there's something keeping me from opening the door all the way I drag my shoes on the plastic sill, the metal sill plate, the door, nearby children and old women, everything. But still, if that was his only reasoning, sill plates and scuff plates on the door would have done the trick
