Well here are four front fascia ideas i have been working on. I have variations of all , but wanted to start simple and see what the community leans towards before really detailing any of them.
Please excuse my crappy photoshop work . I have some rear fascias design i will post in a little while , I would like to see how the community takes to this batch.

1.


2.


3.


4.


Please post up which one you like , these are only conceptual and will be tweaked once I know the best couple.

Thank you all for your time ,

I would have to say the first one, it is more pontiac-ish



Seems you are decent with photoshop, I would take the lower half of this car (below the headlights) and make all the opening a bit taller. and put a bit more emphasis on that jagged opening to make it look a bit more aggressive.

I also like number 1. Number 4 is a close second though. Good designs!

I really like #2, speaks to me. I am always a sucker for (correct me if I'm wrong) Ferrari styling
like my personal concept for my car, based on someone else's image

On your photo it would look something like...

#2. It is a different take on a Ferrari style nose for the Fiero. I may be wrong, but I don't think that I have seen that style on the Fiero. Nice work.

I like #2 and #4,

#4 looks a lot like a certain Camaro nose.

My preference leads me to select #2
I like how your design incorporates the look of the original bumper pad facia but yet updates with large flow thru openings and alleviates the recessed chin appearance.
It's a sleek looking contemporary interpretation that retains the original sporty car look of the GT without screaming out a need for other body mods.
All are very good concepts by the way.
Great job !

all of these fascias would also suck back the front , the goal is to shorten the overhang so we can get the cars lower and minimize bumper scraping. To me the only thing that dates this cars exterior is the front , rear fascias and the boot stripe. I have a whole body kit design I am working towards.

Unfortunately it appears my Favorite #1 is not a strong contender for becoming reality. I think I am going to try and do a better #1 photoshop to maybe sway the opinions

Thank you all for your post and I hope others all chime in so I can keep pushing forward on this. I have a side view I will post up here after I get some more feed back , I also have the 4 rear options that will be posted soon.

ok here is the New #1 I will replace it in first post as well.

#1 is still my favorite. But I love the new Audi looks so thats what makes #4 a close 2nd for me. I'm not big on copying other cars though so I am going to have to say #1. It looks like it just belongs there and isn't borrowed from another manufacturer. Just my .02

I posted the rear fascia pictures in General Chat , here is a link https://www.fiero.nl/forum/Forum1/HTML/086513.html

I only like the last one. Where did you get a right-hand-drive Fiero?

out of those four, i'd go with #4, but with mesh or just open, instead of those ribs or whatever they are in there. like i said in the rear faschia thread though, i think i must be a purist. used to be big into imports, and i hated all the body kits people put on those things too. i want something that looks like it could be stock, not that makes it look like a new front end on a 20-yr old car. lol... but i love the idea of getting rid of that body molding. i've wanted to do that on all of mine, but i don't know how to do bodywork, and it's cost too much to have the thing removed and raised/filled all the way around.

Some of your concepts look very nice but I'd have to say that my favorite is the Lotus nose sold by a guy in CA. I saw one insalled on a Fiero two years ago and it looked like it belonged. The guy that installed it said that it was not an easy install though.

well here are 2 side profiles , the first is using a rear end that is close to the rear end #2 but needs to be fine tuned. The second is rear end #3 with front end #1 , I hope they look good .

hopefully this doesn't derail this thread, but i'm curious why so many pics on here are broken like these two. does the fieroforum pic hosting suck? why not use something like photobucket or imageshack? are we allowed? i use photobucket, but don't want to break the rules if i'm not supposed to..

Thank you Cliff

I see all the pictures , dont know why anyone else would have a problem. If they are broken still please let me know and I will re-upload them

Kemp, I like your design, and your photoshop isn't that bad actually.

May I request a few more front bumpers: Tesla Roadster, McLaren Mp4-12c, Ferrari 458, Lamborghini 560-4, and 570-4. (or a combination of the best elements from the above bumpers into a unique hybrid.)

This would most definitely be one of the best looking modified Fieros out there if it was made!

Max I will see what I can do for you there ,

Aeffertz thank you , I really hope to see one of these designs come to life.

I'd vote for number 2, but I plan to keep my front fascia stock.

Very Mazda...

Porsche makes one. It's called the 911.

2 and 4 ferrari and porsche seem to suit very well. The thing with these bumpers unless you make your own your up for a fair bit of cash $2000 ish as even if someone made one for a honda or nissan at a reasonable price just to make it fit is going to be as difficult as a real one (this is the option i would consider if around $300-400). But making your own will be even more work and surprising still a fair bit of money $100-200 since buying it all retail and if need things that you haven't got and buying in bits rather than bulk.

defintly #1.

Nice work on the creativity, Side profiles are cool, seems to have a Porsche feel to it especially on the first version

Just curious if this went anywhere? I like option 3 and 4 the best. Option 4 is very nice. Has the R8 features on a fiero front bumper. Option 3 is quite nice as well. Do you plan on making any of these? I really like both options.

well it hasn't died , but i think its going to be a very small run or a one off. Unfortunately the one i have decided to go forward with is closest to #1, Hopefully the clay guy will start in the next month.

AWESOME! Keep us posted bro.

Edit to add this. If you could take #1 and add the R8 style lights like in #4 into it, that would rock!
