Two Chevrolet Corvette C8 Stingrays, two different color combinations and the same outward-first, then upward door movement. Bassheadz Kustomz II Inc. in Lynwood, Illinois completed these installations using the Vertical Doors, Inc. Vertical Door Conversion Kit, part number VDCCHEVYCORC820.

The white Corvette pairs black wheels with red brake calipers, while the gray car wears dark multi-spoke wheels. Red interior accents are visible with the doors raised. Both cars were photographed outside the shop, giving a clear look at the finished conversions.

The Gray Corvette C8

How the Corvette C8 Vertical Doors Work

Each converted door opens outward to the hinge system’s stopping point before it is raised vertically. The gas shock assists the upward movement. On a properly installed Stingray system, the initial outward opening provides room for entry and exit without raising the door every time.

The kit replaces the hinge assemblies while retaining the original Corvette doors. Installation includes fender removal, non-visible clearance trimming, wiring-clearance checks and final alignment. Follow the vehicle-specific instructions supplied with the kit and use an experienced installer if this work is outside your mechanical experience.
