i just read through all seven pages...WOW! and that hardly even begins to describe what the car has become. i am very impressed. this is absolutely gorgeous and has to be one of the nicest notchies i have seen on here since i started watching this site about five years ago. i love how you grafted the eg civic bumpers in with the fiero's. i am a huge honda fan along with fieros and actually left the fiero scene for hondas for the past couple years. i have always found the eg style bumpers to be some of the best looking honda has made. the paint is amazing, great choice in wheels, attention to details, but not overdone. you received a + from me. awesome job!
and along with everyone else who chimed in - let us know about production on the parts!!
Ok here's something I have not shared. I had to mount my license plate because Washington is a front plate state. I've seen Corvettes with removable front plates and thought I'd make one with some kind of quick release. After talking to a friend about it, he suggested using a CB antenna mount
Here it is with the license plate
To remove it, I push in (it's spring loaded) and turn it
Then it pops out
Then I just put the Fiero badge over the female part of the mount in the grill, and it's ready to show
And here it is with a custom Fiero badge I made.
And I do have a plan for the turn signals. They will be mounted in the grill.

Nice front and rear ends I've seen on Fiero...hands down. It's tweaked, modernized, and meaner looking. The front plate too is a nice option for all who are required to have them. Good job 4.9
Tomorrow I should have one front and one rear bumper for sale.
I have a company that made them for me and I pick them up tomorrow.
They should go for $400 each plus shipping and handling.
FieroWannaBe can have first dibs on the front one, if he still wants it. He was the first to ask.
They will look like products made by a guy in his driveway so they will need body shop perfection. They will not have mounting brackets and the holes will not be drilled.
I will post more after I see how they look tomorrow. And if I post photos I will not host them on comcast.

I did not take the side skirt molds to them. The parts that came out of those molds had to be tweaked. On both sides the doors rubbed some and on the drivers side their was some fitment issues had to be fixed.
So if someone wanted the side skirts they would have to be prepared to deal with those issues.
During the summer (I work outside) it would be possible for me to make a set, perfect them and then make new molds. But that would a lot of work, time and money. We'll see.

Still all the issue of tweaking those side skirt would be worth it for any Notchback owner.... Most of the work is done and looks at the results.
- Steve do you have molds of the wing? - Do you plan on offering the complete kit? --->Front/Rear BUMPER --->Left/Right SIDE SKIRTS ---> WING ---> HOOD SCOOPS
PFF "hyperv6" hood scoop would also look very good too.

Wow Steve, looks like it all coming togeather. If you happen to make another run, and get some heads up, I'd love to see about possibly getting a set of the front and rear for my GT.
Deal fell through on our conversation we had about 2 months ago. The guy w/ the stuff kinda fell off the face of the planet, and looks like I will have to start from scratch. Oh well..win some, loose some, and sometimes you run to Seattle to get what you want!
Keep us posted.
