Alright guys I received the lights today!!!!!

I am now thinking, go to the show on Saturday or put in the HID lights? Wow, what a choice.
(Norm's new lights for my tilt front end)

If I do not go to the show I will be putting them in on Saturday and post the pictures. Just in case anyone wants to know the lights are first class! The lights are perfect and look great just put in place without even being tied in.

Just wetting your taste buds here to keep looking and you will see the new look

This was just an update for each of you that have been looking.

Thanks for looking

I have to do a little cutting and want to have the full light of the day to make sure that everything is perfect. I did not come this far to mess things up now. I have made a few calls to the show director to see if any other Fieros are going to be there and what class that I would be placed in. Gives me an idea of what is going to happen. I do not want to be in a class with Trans Ams and it be apple to oranges if you know what I mean. You have to have people there judging that love Fieros otherwise being the only one is a drag.......

I guess you get my point. I hope... if it turns out to be nadda then a full day of checking cutting fitting and then hooking up the lights are in order. Then take pictures and post for all to see. So much work has been done now that doing things in a hurry would only get my in trouble and slip up and make mistakes. Not worth it.

You working tomorrow?

I understand... I was just kidding.

I'm not going to be able to make it over there this weekend - my girlfriend's sis and BiL are coming into town tomorrow to see us, and Sunday is tied up already.

Take your time with the lights and enjoy the day tomorrow...

Well after I got home from Greensboro I started on the lights and boy they look great! Here are the pictures. I have not wired them up yet since it was getting dark and I would rather do it in the AM. But anyway here are the photo's of Norm's new light designs. The fit is perfect and so is the look. Norm puts out a great product with fit and quality. I would recommend this or any of his products to anyone.

Here are the pictures.

Great job Norm !

That really makes your flip up front end look soooooooo much sharper !!

Any idea yet on if and how much you will be selling the headlamps individually for, for those that do not wish to go with the flip up front end ?

rverhalen, i think i asked before but i don't recall seeing a response, (unless i missed it) are there any future plans for sideskirts ??

IMO that would really top that car off nicely !

I can't wait to get mine back. You stole my clear turn signals. hehe They look great. The only difference between ours will be that I am going emblemless, and will have the clear side reflectors. Are you going to Fierorama? It would be nice to get some side by side pictures!

Raydar,
Thank you for the kind words, she has been a labor of love and after going to my first auto show today I came home with a plaque for "Class Winner" Now that is the first of many to come!

exoticse,
There is a board member here that I have been talking to about custom made side skirts, I am just waiting for him to get back with me and make my baby look better!

redraif
Thank you

FieroGTguy
You were right the white did look so much better, and it matched the "Silver" in the car. You had a great idea. When is Fierorama? and where. Remember I am new to show and need to know

madcurl
That word "Spectacular" coming from you is better then the "Plaque" that I won today! Thank you sir!

Just a few more shots coming of the lights at night and how well they work ( I betcha that work better then they look, Just a feeling I have here )

Thanks for looking gents

Nice way to be different and still keep the Fiero looking Fiero.
You can get the hood and go crazy making changes till it suits your taste. I think Madcurl is looking into a custom Norm hood for one of his creations. What a great platform to either live with or go crazy on.

Norm your the greatest! Keep up the great work and I can not wait for your secret product coming out.

SHHH......the car has turned out great, I realy like the light setup. It to me is a nice new look without it looking like a "ricer" add on. I don't like strips on a car. I have them on mine but they were on there. Yours look good, almost a Dodge Viper look. Glad to see a great build on like this, thanks for sharing and Norm your the best buddy!!!

It is another product that will go with the front tilting hood, that is all that I can say for now. Norm should be the one to tell everyone once it is ready. But low and behold once it is done I damn sure am going to get it. In our conversations we had at my home we talked about his new product and I was sold. He is not rushing to get it out and besides I have to recoupe a little funds before I could afford the new product.

All I can say is if you think his headlights or tilting front nose is cool what to you see what he has dreamed up next.

GSXRBOBBY I think you know what I am talking about if you have been talking to Norm about your new front end. LOL

Anyway, it is not my place to say just be ready I sure am!

Thanks

That turned out even better than I figured it would, and I'm not even a fan of HID lights.

Will that headlight kit work on a stock Fiero hood and front bumper? If so I love that setup and light output. LMK.

If you hacked apart the amount of frame to accommodate the depth of the lights, cut the stock nose, fenders, and hood then yes it would fit.

All I can say is that front end looks AMAZING, too bad we dont have more vendors like Norm around.

Would it be possible to make the front end tilt up remotly or hydrautically? Now that would be a nice addition.
