The shocks are what hold the doors up. Are you sure of the specs of the replacement shocks you used?

I have yet to replace a shock on may car - had them all regenerated - the 6 for the suspension, the 2 doors and the ones for the trunk/hood. Never had an issue since (going on 5 years now. The small shocks were about $10-15 each. Car stays original too.

Yes, I purchased the correct Lamborgini part. The doors stay up much better when is hot out. Not quit as good when it cold.
