I hope thats not the case. I know times are hard but I hope he can hold on until things get better or stable at least.

I know that there is a Norm who does fiberglass work on the solstice side but I'm not sure if it's the same vendor. They do refer to the business as norm's fiberglass howevr I never got his website to work. I believe he is still active but you have to reach him directly. If he still does fiero stuff is another question.

The Norm's Fiberglass who makes parts for the Solstice / Sky is the same company that made the flip-up front ends for the Fiero.

I found a website, which appears to be a work-in-progress -- http://testwebsite1.net/

Here is their phone number -- 574.255.7843

I think I heard the building he was based out of in South Bend/Elkhart was sold and he was forced to move. I haven't bothered to verify that. It's been a while since I drove by his shop. The next time I'm down that way, I can check to see if he (or the building, for that matter) is still there. "574-255-XXXX" is a South Bend phone number so, if it's still working, he's still in the immediate area.

Here's a site where he posted this morning http://www.kappaperformance...index.php?board=61.0

Looks like he's using " normsf " as a username.

Very sweet, Norm! How much are the side skirts? How do they attached? It appears your website is down.



Hello Josh, thankyou for being so kind. Yes it seems I need to find another webmaster as mine pooped out on building me a new one as Im no computer guy. Side skirts are not hard to install as we are constantly improving the install method using double sided tape across the top and factory fasteners elsewhere. You can call me at 574-255-7843 and the side skirts are $395.00 set.

Thanks again Norm

Norm is still around but you'll have to get in contact with him directly... I think Fiero Warehouse was the business that got sold a little while back (or it was put on the market anyway)

Hello and Wow with thanks! yes Im still in business and to be honest getting a new site just wasnt a big priorty maybe it should be. Most of our business is oneoffs and custom work with the Pontiac Solstice too. We build every body panel for the Solstice ( fenders, bumpers, doors, hoods and even the roof too). Its a bummer that GM pulled Pontiac and killed another great car the Solstice, they have less of a production run than the Fiero, yet still beat out the Miata and Pooch Boxer S in competition events. Go figure, thats one reason I didnt get too exicited about not renewing our website. Thankyou very much for thinking of us here and anyone can still call me at 574-255-7843 heres a few shots of what we do.

Norm,

It looks like you're still in the same place ( I remember the building & the railroad tracks.) Glad to see you're still around!!

Kind of sad the Solstice had a shorter run than the Fiero...

Hey Norm is that a Solstice coupe kit I spot up there?

When the Solstice gets cheap enough I might pick up one as a toy.

Norm i have seen some of your solstice stuff and it is just incredilble quality, awesome styled stuff !

I wish you made more stuff for the fiero, but i think we all understand the solstice crowd is more profitable.

Continued success !

I'm very glad Norm is still doing this, even tho it looks like I may never have a Solstice/Sky of my own.
He let me drive his car at Daytona '07:

Hello and thankyou you may have seen a silver Solstice at the Daytona show that had a Ls2 in it with our pieces on her and yes we make a rear facia diffusser and fenders for the Sky. The Solstice is a great car as is the Fiero, get an 07 to 09 GXP or Redline which uses the turbo 2.0L this engine makes 275 hp yet gets better fuel milage than the base model. Thanks Norm

Hello I used to make them still might, they just take a lot of time to build. Kriss Kumson still builds them part time. Theres plenty of info on him just search for Flushmount headlights. If not call me 574-255-7843 Thanks Norm
