Looks great, I like the subtle mods and the 2 tone paint.

Hmmm...well, you're doing a great job! I can't really get excited about the two tone paint job though....kinda looks like an ambulance..but the actual work put into it looks top notch! I love those wheels to..can you tell us where you got them, and how much? Thanx.

More pics from tonight!


Carbon fiber brake vents are mounted


Rear grilles and inner sail panels repainted


Quarter windows mounted w/ reflective Pontiac emblems

~sigh~ now I just need some more plastic rivets and paint for the last center trim strip pieces and I think the exterior will be done! This is taking a bit longer than originally planned but I know the end result will be well worth the effort. Thanks for all the compliments, and I hope to see everyone in Richland this weekend!

Yay! I finally found a store in town that has the plastic rivets for the ground effects (after 2 days and 5 stores). Things are looking good for finishing up tonight. Will have more pics later today

Wow! That two-tone paint job is awesome looking! Is the decklid staying wingless?

You did a great job on that Fiero. I was wondering about the paint. How did you come up with the bold 2 tone idea? I did not like it at first, but now it's starting to grow on me. I was also wondering if you plan on painting the rear wing(when you get one), the same red as the bottom? I think that would look perfect, and help with the bold two tones, you have made looks so well. Yea, make the wing red, with black stantions(the black would help blend the white into the red wing, like the black molding does, all around the car). Good job so far, I hope you win some tall, cool looking trophy.

That car looks great! Show us some full pics in the daylight sun to catch the reflection.

Careful of buggies as you drive to Washington for the show. Hate to see them ruin your new paint job.

Well, its done for now! Got back last night from Richland, WA and the northwest regional WestFest. I didn't place but there were 5 other very nice cars in my class (Custom Modified). Even with no trophy we had a great time, and I got quite a few kudos on the car. I'll post a thread with other pics from the show, but here are a few of my car

Hope everyone enjoyed the build up pics. I think I'll borrow my friends hi-res camera later this week and get a few more nice shots
