Our big discussion now is how will we do the insides of the two big cut-outs. The GTO had horizontal lines that I'm not crazy about. We kicked around the idea of louvers like the Barracuda.
We also thought of having the passenger side having FIERO GTO script and then make a blank space to the far right of the driver's side for mounting either a Fiero nose badge or a Pontiac Arrowhead, etc. We'll get to work on photoshops of this idea.
Another thing we're looking at is the possibliity of making a matching hood scoop as shown here:

Everyone, let us know which way you like best! Is it one way or no way or would either be fine?

Yellow; no question, but without Cuda grills[This message has been edited by MarkS (edited 05-04-2013).]

Open for a Solstice style grill. TXGOOD here on PFF found a place on the net that sells the same metal material. Let folks put what they want in there.

We actually talked about different styles of honeycomb grills! I think the hexagons from the Solstice would be too large for this application but those like the 65 Mustang would work nicely. We have also talked about just making the grills open and offering different options for inserts.
Obviously we are more in the planning stage than production but we did work on the car yesterday. As CrazyDragn has shown, we did take the fascia and eggcrate off my Formula. We also bought a 4'x8'x2" piece of pink insulation foam board. We cut that up and attached it to the front of the car. We decided we were not satisfied with our starting point so we're pulling it all off and buying the two-part foam mix. We'll get all the pink foam off and make a cardboard enclosure to pour the mixed foam into. Once it is dry, we'll start carving.
