DKOV:
I would like to buy the kit with the gauge bezels, radio/AC surround, and shifter surround. How much for the pre-production version to test fit?

Dusty@zianet.com

I am sure that a lot of hard work went into making these kits.
I cant afford that much
Keep up the good work, I have lotto tickets

how did i miss this thread?.... I think it would be really cool with the bezels. Also why not recreate those blastic things on the sides of the seats that hold the seatbelts. You know, the ones that always crack. I'd be interested in those and bezels. Along with the with the black piece that goes around the ash tray lighter.

Please don't forget the CF sail panel insert. The standard black inside panels fade so easily. CF would be a nice touch. Whatever you decide, we thank you for offering these products to the Fiero community!

DKOV... I havent been able to get back to you yet about my t-top... i have been working 10 hr days in construction and have been too tired to even turn on the computer... i will e-mail you later tonight and we'll work out the finishing touches and shipping details... thanks

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

86 Fiero GT - If you want to donate them to the cause, sure, I'll build you a set. That would be great!

----

Coolcat... hold onto that thought... I think I have a t-top liner now. No sense tearing yours up if we don't need to. Thanks though, you're in the bullpen

----

DustoneGT - We are not selling the test stuff. Just the finish products. The quality is not to par and we don't want any chance of a damaged reputation. Sorry bud

----

fiero go fat - Another winner!!! Great idea with the seat side plates. I see SO MANY of them missing and damaged. Good call!!!

Another hit with the cigarette lighter surround!!!

----

JCW - Sail Panel Inserts... I was wondering what to call those. Yes, they are on my list.

----

Nebrios88 - Looking forward to you email

Again, thanks for your feedback EVERYONE. I hope to have the sales list up shortly

DKOV -

Yeah thats a good one, maybe even a replacement wing. Looks cool and save a bunch of weight.

So would you guys pay around $200 for a mirror finish CF Headliner? 'Cause that's what it looks like small production volume pricing works out to. Not absolutely in stone yet but preliminary numbers in today suggest it.

The headliner is pre marked for the mountings for the sunvisors and the overhead lampm with the cutout for the 3rd light marked on the INSIDE of the panel for those that don't want to use one (no nasty hole).

Also... Here's some intersting twists...

We can emboss the Pegasus logo IN The CF!!! Imagine looking up into the CF Mat deeply embedded in mirror finish resin and noticing the ghosted raised image of the Pegasus laying dormant in the perfectly smooth finish.

Sound good? I thought so. No final word yet on the price of that option

We CAN lay in the words "Fiero" or "GT" or the "DMS" logo or even the Pegasus in the bezels for those that find that interesting and I'm working out a way to lay in CUSTOM TEXT for those that want a more personal touch

More news to follow. First headliners should be popping out of the molds here shortly!!! Get in line early

DKOV,

Are you going to produce the sunroof headliner as well? I will order one of those as soon as they are available.

Yes... they are the next Headliner piece to come out. We did the stock liner first, the sunroof version 2nd and the t-tops 3rd. In order of exposure and usage.

I'll put you down for one

Thanks!

DKOV -

DKOV, put me down for a headliner, let me know when to pay. Also I would like to see the interior panels in carbon fiber to match the headliner. I think it would look very good to have the panels to match the headliners.

PS. let me know when you would want those valve covers.

------------------
N*,13" stoppers, 18s, completely rebuilt

Put me down for a sunroof liner eventually, but for right now, I need to get me a motor, pretty sure I'm gonna go with a northstar. I didn't read the whole thread cause of being at the 20th, but how about the little things like: The seat belt caps on the wall, you know where the bolt is hidden. Seat belt locks? Embossing the pegasus logo into the Cigarette lighter housing? Light roof housing? Center console? Floor panels instead of carpet? Can Carbon fiber come in any other colors? Plastic trim inside the car?

DKOV,
On the headliners WITH the SR cutout, could the cutouts be included? To make a sun cover?? or is that in the works?

Hummmm what about the defroster vent in CF?? Just use the "left-overs" and drill a bunch of holes in them!

hrm.. cf stuff.. my fav

CF center console (the thing you rest your elbow on and has the door on it) all the foam is rotting off and its kinda soggy..

How about door gaurds? that go on the bottom bottom of the door and protect it from chips, etc.

CF arm rests? CF sun visors? CF sunroof clip-in lip? CF rear speaker pillars (something with better access to the speakers) CF sunroof shade?

Soo many possibilties

Edit: Oh yea, a choice of DMS, Fiero blah, or the pegasus would be really cool, specially if its kinda ghost like... or the grain goes the oposite way of the rest of the panel..

ASAP of course

I got your note and am sending your reply...

DKOV -

most of the "padded" areas in the fiero have long since rotted away.. hehehe.. now its just a bunch of soggy foam w/vinyl covering...

Arm rests I can see being problematic, your elbow rests on there, it could cause problems.. Maybe ill just mold some for myself and get them covered.. same thing with the center console..

Sun visors might be hard to get right.. but it'd match your head liner.. and sun roof cover..

It'd be kinda neat to have CF whatchamucallit.. the black stripe along the car seprating the top and bottom.. trim! thats it. That'd look pretty neat.. a cf gt tail light replacement would be uberpimp too

Maybe a better designed shifter plate? Those stupid little ashtray doors fling open and are totally useless.. Maybe something with a flip up area for switches? nos/foglights/neons/radfan/etc

^^ these things?

You have to pop the clip open and slide it in from the top..

the other piece clips into the front sunroof hole dealies.. keeps buffeting down.. mm cf

What about integrating the A-pillar covers into the head liner?

Ill buy a headliner for a sunroofed Fiero, and maybe the upper part of the doors, and the panels around and under the doors also. I dont want to paint them because it looks cheap IMO. And could you possibly make fuel rail covers for an LT1 with Fiero GT??? Id DEFFINETLY buy a set of those.

Gas doors?

how about a c/f sunroof replacement? could paint outside to match car and leave inside c/f (be easier to lift out to)

I'd buy a standard headliner for 200 bucks. I need to get a standard roof panel first (mine's got a crappy aftermarket sunroof currently and I want a solid roof), which will be done within the next year. Obviously I'd get the headliner simultaneously.

If Will's idea of making the A pillar covers integrated with the headliner was done, I'd pay double that price. I like the looks of the stock covers, but I hate the seams/overlaps, they look really crappy IMO. If you made *all* of the trim pieces (B-Pillar piece, sill cover, and the A-pillar/headliner combo) I'd probably pay 6 hundred for the whole kit.

As for any other CF parts I'd want, the N* valve covers sound cool, and any body parts in carbon would be nice to have/see. My car's all black with the exception of the wheels, so a carbon decklid would really set it off...the snag with that is it would have to have mounts for the wing, as I think a wingless GT looks goofy. I would probably consider a CF hood if it had a good vent on it (good=not ridiculous looking and actually functional).

Keep on truckin'...I sure hope you get somewhere with all this ambition so we can get some awesome products for the Fiero. If it doesn't work out, it sounds like you'll be broke from investing so much too, and we don't want that to happen!

I missed this thread while at the 20th, but I'm interested in a CF headliner for my sunroof 88GT. I have the beechwood interior, so I would like to consider an appropriate mat color if available. Don't put too much dependence on my order, however, as my budget goes from crisis mode to nearly manageable almost daily.

I've made a few things out of CF like a custom intake plenum for a Formula SAE car. It is interesting stuff to work with. Just a question, How do you make the screw countersinks and under ashtray braketry in the CF trim panels? Thanks.

I don't think they replace the panels entirely...they're just covers. Most of the CF panels are just a sheet that uses double stick tape to cover the old panel.

Obviously fiber reinforced plastics can't form the sharp corners and recessed areas, they do MUCH better with gentle curves.

Hey DKOV, think there is enough want for some red carbon fiber. I would sure love those valve covers in a bright red to match the ones I painted. The northstar looks just beautiful with some painted covers.
shameless plug on the motor, pretty aint it. Let me know if you can get some red carbon fiber.

------------------
N*,13" stoppers, 18s, completely rebuilt

We do have some CF mat that is Red and Black. It's checkered with the Red Fiber going one way and the black going the other... Looks pretty cool!

I'll see if I can't a sample scanned in for you all

DKOV -

Just for those that are thinking the "colored" carbon fiber is actually carbon fiber...you may want to look into it a little deeper. Some of the high dollar stuff is a colored aramid in one direction and carbon in the other, this stuff is about 45-60 bucks a yard. The cheaper stuff is colored fiberglass in one direction with carbon in the other direction, which is about 30 bucks a yard. Either way it costs more than carbon fiber does because of the low demand. There isn't any way to "bleach" carbon and dye it, but fiberglass and aramid can both be dyed. Carbon is black...with exception to diamond, of course.

Just FYI so you don't tell your buddies you have red carbon fiber and get made fun of.

I'm interested in the headliners. How are the cut-outs for the overhead lights and break lights to be handled? I don't have either installed and would rather keep it that way.

Mike

The Headliners come out of the molds with the sunvisor mount points impressed in the piece but not drilled.. you have to do that.

The Rear Brake Light "template" is actually impressed on the BACKSIDE of the panel for you to trim if you need to. The front side (visible side) of the panel shows no hint of the piece or location for it.

Same with the Radio Surround.

Best,

What I really meant was to bring the tail light subject up, see if any other members like the idea.

What about the plastic cam gear covers for a TDC? I also like the idea of the plastic peice that covers one row of injectors.

How about a Master Cylinder cover? Is that possible?

Do you need some N* cam covers to work with to make the molds for the CF cam covers?
