ok all that needs left is the rest of the kandy paint. it is getting 5 more coats 2nite. but i took some pic and this is what it is looking like. let me know all opinions. i will not get angry if u call me a ricer.

I like it. Very clever idea with the side vents. What are the rocker panels from?

Red 88 GT T-Top 3800 Supercharged
White 88 GT T-Top Stock
White 88 GT Stock

How'd you do that to your lights?

Not bad, I like it.

When I got to the light shot, I had to look twice & say "what the ?"

That's pretty neat.

What about the front end ? Is that stock ?

Good luck with the project. Hope you post some when finished !

i like it all, but like my own, it needs something done with the lower rear facia for a more complete look.

consider at least a switch to a gt rear facia.

I love the paint... looks great! I can't wait to see some finished pics. You're going to have a very unique Fiero (which I think is what most people strive for).

The rocker looks sweet... as do the 1/4 scoops. The taillights- it's a bit hard to tell from these pics, but so far they look pretty good. I'm just not entirely sure they fit the lines of the car. But I certainly commend you for the work you've done on them! Keep it up, and keep us posted!

------------------

Looking for Fiero posters?

I'll add my praises. I love the rockers, the side scoop looks cool as well; what else is happening to it? I might have to agree with MinnGreenGT about the taillights, they are definitely cool, but almost look to "modern" compared to the rest of the car (or something..). Regardless, very nice work.

My only suggestions: Follow through with the lines of the rocker panels back to the rear fascia; and get that thing lowered!

I enjoy seeing new mods that people come up with. RadRuss, the extra Fiero side scoop on the left side is a neat idea - I've never seen that before.

The other day, someone posted a pic where a guy attached the upper portion of the front fenders to the hood such that when the hood was raised, the fenders went up with them... Another neat original idea...

Tell me about the tail lights. What did you use?

------------------

I cant see a thing?
PIP trouble or is it just me?

ok the rockers are off a honda civic aftermarket m3 side skirts. the front bumper is not stock many others on the forum have the same bumper, and i am planning to change the back end of the car to something else. it will be for something off an import aftermarket. the taillights are from a toyota supra.

I'd like to see those rockers with a GT rear fascia, and a stock 87-88 coupe front fascia.

Nice job!

Great Job Russ... Keep up the good work!

Everything looks great RADRUSS. Another truly unique Fiero. Only thing i would do is paint the side moldings red. Since theres no black moldings on the nose they kinda stand out really bad.

i am planning to shave off the moldings and door handels when i change the back bumper.

Are you planning on adding a rear wing of any type? Just curious...

I was going to suggest to paint them too but that'll work! Nice job with the mods!

yes i am but i dont wont anything to gawdy, i will go with an aftermarket wing but prob something with a single deck. a wing can make or break a car so it is very critical desicion.

Good! I was hoping you were going to say that. A stock Fiero wing just wouldn't suit it very well, but I a mild/reasonable single deck wing would fit quite nicely. Keep up the good work!

WOW
Exactly what color of paint are you using? That looks fantastic!

I love virtually all of it. The verdict is still out on the taillights but all else looks clean and unique. Good job!

------------------

Nice looking car. What is going in on the side vents? The stock grates? As for wing, With the front end and such you may want to think about the wrap-around spoiler. As others have said the stock wing won't do much with the way you have the body set-up. (appearence wise) To keep it sleek looking, I would say the wrap around or possibly a different wing but don't raise it up too high.
The color looks great.

Looking more at the tail lights, I am thinking the wrap around spoiler. The lights tend to give the body a wider appearence.

I would see if someone could photoshop on on to see how it looks. The great thing about images on the computer, you can mod them and see what they look like before actually spending money and doing it.

to answer some of the questions, the paint is kandy apple red, from house of kolor. and about the side vents i would use the stock grates but it seems when i do not enough air gets into the cold air intake i put in. so i may take them out and put mesh there instead.

Very nice! I love that color...I think a stock wing with taller stands would look great on it.

for a while rockcrawl was making some smallish side scoops that fit just over the intake. if he still had a couple of drivers side ones that might work and look good.

the car was back in a corner so the angle's not very good. i got a pair back when he first started making them. might be worth looking into.

I like it!!! How about doing the same thing with the vents on the other side. Personally I think a whale tail would look very nice

------------------

I just thought that all his hard work deserved a bump so it would get noticed

i get my car back 2morrow. all done and paint done. my next project is to change the heater core and cut the cat out. my winter project 4 sure is to get rid of the black moldings. they do stand out on the car.

So far its looking great Russ! You already know it, but that rear fascia needs some help. Having the rocker moldings makes the height difference really stand out. Otherwise, the car looks spectacular!
