wow, I don't think I've ever seen a white monochrome notchie. That looks very cool! Love the rims, too. Still not a big fan of zr1 style hoods, though :/ My car had the exact same hood as yours until it was conveniently removed by the bumper of the car in front of me
Now you just have to give all that show some GO!

hay man thats a very nice looking ride there, how do the suspension technique springs feel? may get the ST for my ride. ST = suspension techniques right? =p do you get a little squeak when you go over a bump with the kyb struts and the car being soo low? i do.
i love the suspension technique springs! that pic of the car being slammed was after an accident. broke the cast housing that the strut mounts to. the spring was sitting on the tire, and cut a groove into it while i drove to the nearest parking lot. no, i dont have any problems with them squeaking.

Dude, I saw your car today on I70 west getting on the Hamilton road exit on my way to work. It's the 2nd time I've seen it and wondered who you were. Looks killer at freeway speeds! Nice job. Richey
STRATOHACKER- were you driving a fiero? I take that way to school everyday(eastland career center) ill keep an eye out for ya thanks for the compliments
sqoach- i painted the wingstands black to try to highlight the black on the rest of the car. i threw them on there when i first got it and they just grew on me. plus, some of the same color stand look a little tacky(just my opinion)
$Rich$- is it the black on the wingstands you dont like, or are they just too big? if i had to do it over, i would have went with the 5" stands instead of the 6".
wpgfiero- can you still not see them? i could try to email them to you if youd like
Black-Azz-GT- the Suspension Technique (ST) lowering springs are a 1"1/2 lowering spring that can be found a www.jcwhitney.com the pic that says lowrider was after running over a 6" curb- oops Thanks for all the compliments guys!

I'm normally not a fan of Fiero body mods/ground FX kits. I think they take away from the naturally good lines of the car. However I have to say that is the single best looking body-modded Fiero I have seen. The simplicity of what you have on there (vs the "let's see how many aftermarket body panels I can bolt onto this thing" look) and the plain white are great.
Hats off to you man. Would you mind if I made my car look like yours?

GreenZ28- thanks! I put in alot of time and effort into it( the first time ive done any body work and painting) and compliments like that make it worthwhile. And i dont mind if you make your car look like mine

I attempted a signature for you. There's plenty of guys on this forum that can do way better than this. I tried to give it a somewhat cartoonish look, but it just looks kind of blurry. You can use it if you want to.

Excellent execution of parts! I am a firm believer in form following function. Can you favor us with a peek inside your ride? Does your interior match your taste on the outside? Great notchie. Oh, were your wheels really ripped off?

MTX speakers in door panel pioneer 4X10 speakers up front Grand am cd player Grant GT steering wheel Temporary seat covers (until i get $ for Mr mikes) Aftermarket shift knob short shifter soon to come I didnt want to get real crazy and gaudy with it as i already liked how the interior looked, so i just spiced it up a little It could use a little brightening though...

Great looking notchie! I think those side scoops are the best looking ones available. Everything flows well... except for those wing stands... I think they would look better in white IMO. Good Job

On a side note, anyone mind photoshopping this car yellow and adding a 355 front end? That is unless iwanna3.4dohc doesn't want it to be done.
As for the wingstands, im thinking about painting them white. I might have a poll to see what people think (black or white) Would someone be able to photoshop them white?

I'll photoshop them white in a minute, and if someone can give me a pic of a car with a 355 nose on the same angle as one of those pics or a similar angle I'll try that photoshop too. Personally I like the black wing stands, they even inspired me
