Hi, Does anyone know who sells the quarter windows for the fastbacks that have a scoop in them with a small window? I looked at the Fiero store's website, who I thought sold them, but they dont seem to show them on there site. Thanks Kyle
Used is such a harsh term. . . I perfer "Previously obsessed over" ;) 88 base coupe: Busted again Wait. . . Did I just say I can't wait to do more work on my Fiero?. . .what, am I retarded?

Not sure where the ones I have came from, but I wasn't impressed with the overall quality.. Guy had siliconed them on the car, and one of the windows popped out somewhere along the way. I started sanding on one of them to get the lines better, but got sidetracked and lost interest I guess. They would need work (was going to repair some bubbles / cracks in the fiberglass) to make them look good, as well as cutting a new window or 2 from some tinted plexi / lexan, but if anyone wants them I'd sell them for $25 and shipping. (edit -- sold I think..) I think they were the Fiero Store ones, but can't confirm. Last time I looked at the website they were there, but now are gone. Wonder why..? Unfortuntatly I don't have a good picture of them, but you can kinda see one in my sig... I won't be back down to the car 'till next weekend though... Anyway... Don't wanna hijack the thread.. Edit - BTW, MinnGreen's that Racingman posted above look better! The bigger window really helps I think.. I'd use them, but with the Aus scoops and likely a hood scoop, I just thought it was too many scoops on the car.

The ones that Eric/Racingman24 posted are actually mine
I did get them from Ms Lori through a "mall" posting - but she mentioned having more. As far as I can tell, they are the same as what the FieroStore offers (this was a clipping from their website)
Even then, they are not a 100% perfect fit up close (but they look fine from a normal distance).
The problem I've run into is mounting the windows and the scoop panels themselves. I originally used black silicone adhesive on the windows, and they didn't last long (didn't lose them while moving at least), and now the double-stick trim tape I used to attach them to the car has come loose. So I'm looking to reattach them using some windshield adhesive and/or epoxy...
These dont look all to hot though. You could paint em I guess.
I have those and you will have to do a lot of work to get them ready but they are 5 times as thick as the ones from The Fierostore Cutting the hole and sanding the edges take the most time, mine are not finished yet but I will start working on them again soon.
I got mine from Lori, she used to offer them too, I'm not sure of she is anymore, but they fit great, no trimming, very little sanding and a nice coat of high gloss black really sets them off. They had the stock curve and the dark tint. I was very happy with the quality and presume that the fierostore ones are just as good. In case you're wondering the window is glued with the eurathane (?) glue for the windshields and then the actual panles were glued with the ame stuff to the car.

Yup... that's the stuff I'm looking to use to re-install mine permanently.

Yup, first we finished and painted the scoop window, when paint dry glued on the glass while panels were off of the car because they have a slight curve to them, after the dried overnight then the whole quarter window was glued on permanently. There was no pianting after, you do it before the sail panel gets glued to the car.

I believe BigFieroMan (Christian... Kyle is the one who started this topic )... got the scoops themselves from the Fiero Store, and the clear inserts from a local (to him) vendor. There is some discussion about it in the thread linked above the pics.

I just put it on there. I remembered that you had asked for something like that before and finally decided to do something about it. I've been in a funk for a while, but the past few days I've noticed that my creative juices where starting to flow again. So rather than ruin this thread, I started a "My Fiero Store" build thread in the mall. I couldn't resist putting that here though- kinda feels like an opposing team defacing the others high school's locker room...
