Thanks to everyones input I have come up with the final look for parts that will be available for the fromt of the fiero. I have designed it in pieces so it can be mixed and matched for individual looks.
Only the back to design now.
Basic front spoiler with orange perspex covers over the indicators.
Basic front spoiler with slightly reshaped open grill option. Could be fitted with mesh or previously posted 3 bar grill. See next pic. Also pictured is optional hood vents.
Front spoiler with scoops, hood scoops, 3 bar grill and Australian style Indicator/Park Lamps fitted.
Revised nose scoop fitted and Pontiac style V grill with mesh added. Driving light/Indicator as mentioned in previous thread.
A possible light addition? Indicators on the outside and driving lights on the inside. Comments?

Well, since it's mix-and-match, I think my vote would go to a fascia with the mesh insert (#s 4 & 5) without a divider, along with the GFX modification (#s 3, 4, & 5), and the turn lens things in #3.

What, you want me to lie?
Nope. Don't want you to lie. I actually like the more basic look myself but have based the designs on everyones input. The basic will be available by the way.

Actually, on second thought, I still like the next to last design, but wouldn't want the nose scoops. Is this going to be an add-on, or a completely new front fascia?
All designed to be add ons. So you can mix and match for whatever look you are after. You will need a GT nose to start with though. To answer another question. Yes these will be made. Will probably be available exclusiely from a North American distributor. More on that bit later. I am looking at 3 to 6 months to develop all the pieces but will release stages starting with the side scoops on the previous thread.

Wow, I'll take the first setup as soon as that's done! I noticed something while watching this thread, the only kits that have stood the tests of time are ones that are able to be purchased in multiple units, or one at a time. Most of the others just come and go after a handful of years. I realize that this won't apply to the Archie kits, but he has an amazing kit and price on those things, so he's excluded from my theory, but anyways... I think you really might have a lasting set of products if you could pull this off, while you're at it you might want to create a set of affordable wing stantions (5" or so), that would help your profit margin on this line of parts. Don't give up on this it's too cool, Mike Schaefer http://surf.to/fiero

I'm with the others on the second to the last, That's just BANG'N!!! Ilike the concept of mix and match, that way everyone will be just a little unique. Personaly I am for the entire Stage-2 with the scooped facsia, spit grill with the mesh. The turn signals I would keep standard and put the driving lights in the portholes. Well, that's just one idea. See how well the mix and match concept works???
Peace, B2 OUT!
P.S. Uh, what about the back? Has anyone thought about turning the hump around and opening it up instead of the Mustang scoop????

I think the orange flushmounts look funny. VHT makes a lense blackout paint, called nite shades, thats what I used on mine. They are blacked out black, but shine through normally when the bulbs are lit. Im going to take a pic into photo shop, and Ill post it tomorrow if I have the time.
WOW! Aus you have done it again. I just love the brake air inlet holes. I can actually see those awesome cross drilled rotos peeking out from behind the 16 inch spoke wheels.
