I haven't used those but thats a really nice option. This is actually the first time I've ever seen those. I might buy a pair just to fart around with since the price is reasonable.
People have been installing airbags on Fieros but it has always been a ton of welding and customizing.

Should also help some with tire / wheel clearance issues as you wouldn't need the spring perch or slip collar and nut for a coil over. The bag would be much higher up ...

Not sure how thick the pink parts are, but they will take up valuable suspension travel. The strut only has about 7" of total suspension travel. Stock ride height leaves you with about 3.5" of compression. If those pink areas a 3/4" thick, then you lose another 1.5 and left with about 2" of suspension travel on a stock ride height. Lower 1" and you are down to 1".

Paul, you have a good point. I could extend the top mount height on the rear frame for MidWilly to add additional travel, cant do that too easily on stock Fiero tower... But for the price and ease of installation I just got to try a set...
