no this cannot be done. See miata doors have a different basic yet superior DNA code. The miata doors would reject the inferior 370 DNA they were attached to.

Kinda like a kidney transplant that the body rejected if that helps

Lets say i was feeling ballsy, and got the miata doors on the 370. Do you think by the next morning the miata doors would have consumed the 370 and I'd be left with just miata doors laying on the ground?

Sorry I'm new to the DNA thing.

this is a possibility, either way the doors would have to kill the inferior parasite that they were attached to
