OK so the other day I was cruising through town and I passed a DMC DeLorean and thought could my Fiero go back in time if I hit 88? Anyway has any one put a delorean body kit to their fiero or anything of that sort. Also has anyone put a Back to the Future kit to their Fiero, you know just for kicks and giggles?

The yellow doesn't make it look that bad


Looks similar


Just for laughs

There was a cheap bttf fiero on youtube and then on ebay if you search I'm sure you can find it.
I don't think Delmoreans are that expensive that itd be worth doing a kit.

I do smell a little plutonium too. Maybe that explains the burning tire marks outside of my house.
I think it would be a cool Halloween project. Its a little late now but there's no time like the present!

Well, they're not what I'd call cheap. But you can buy a brand new one for about $70K with some nice options.

The DMC Houston ones have gone WAAAAAAYYYYYY up in price over the past ten years, $60k is the price for their new ones now. A decent DeLorean can be had for $20k.

I'm not a huge fan of the DMC. But I certainly have respect for them. I am surprised to see a yellow one. I don't know why someone would paint over that stainless steal body. I saw one a few weeks back at a car show. It had just under 10k miles. It was in great shape and the stainless steel really looked cool.

The painted ones are considered "damaged" by the Delorean enthusiast and those can be had for less than a regular one.

Yes the DMC Houston cars have gone WAAAAY up in price. That's because even though they have enough parts to build 10,000 or so cars, they can only recycle VINs from the existing Delorean fleet. This means a Delorean has to die before they can build one and that drives the price waaaay up. I know people build Cobras and Mustangs all the time from kits, but this is what DMC Houston told me to my face.

I think the painted ones look good, but I don't know if I would want to put up with all the grief you would get from the die hard Delorean enthusiasts.
