So my car is finally coming together. I am finally reaching the end of my list of mods i have wanted to do since buying the car. Here are a few pictures.
FieroKing's headlight upgrade, Aus stage 2.1 scoops, Mrr Wheels, 1" lowering, koni reds, custom hood vent, mustang vent on the rear(not pictured), vette tail lights, 3800 NA, black trunk carpet, white from turn/driving lights(not pictured) and some more i cant remember right now. Still not finished with all my plans though.
Edit: Forgot badge delete, antenna delete and the header back exhaust with spintek muffler.

Austin

Thanks guys.. I used short strand fiberglass filler. I cant remember what brand i'll look tomorrow who make it. But i put a piece of wire mesh under the badge holes so it had something to grip to.

Thanks for the compliments. Austin

Thanks for the compliments. They are fierokings headlight mod. I bought the RX-7 flushmount headlights off ebay and trimmed them to fit. I mounted them a bit differently than he did though. I got the new shiftboot in and i have some pics on their way.

Thanks again, Austin

I got the FS glove box installed. I love it. It allows for so much more storage. I redid my old pedals, they look great ill take pictures tomorrow. I got the body molding back on. Trying to finish up the mustang scoop and i am in the process of installing HID fog lights.

Just a bump till pics arrive.

You've got the same receiver I've got in my Fiero! CDA-9855, circa 2005. Absolutely sick head-unit. I love everything about it. Though the Glidetouch iPod interface sucks, I've gotten an Ai-Net iPod cable that plugs into the dock connector, allowing me to control from my iPod, but still having digital input to the receiver. I also have the Terk XMD1000 XM receiver with the XMDALP100 Alpine interface. As of right now I've got a full Audiobahn system, but that was 2 years ago, before I knew anything about car audio. Oh well, it's now getting a Sundown Audio SAX-100.4 4-channel amp with a JL Audio 8W7-3 in a custom center console on the two bridged rear channels. It'll see about 480W RMS at 2.78DCR. The front speakers will probably compose of a set of CDT Audio HD-62 components with the upstage tweeter molded into the A-pillars. Those will see about 100W RMS at the standard 4 ohms.

I won't even bother getting into what I've got in my 2003 Land Rover Freelander. Retail's about $10,000 on that system.

Do you have any pics of the FieroStore glovebox in? I've been thinking of getting one but wasn't sure about the look. Does installing it damage the dash underneath at all?

No i changed back to the original shifter because it drives alot better. My short shifter was hard to shift. Plus the height makes for more comfortable driving.

The turn signals are nissan maxima lights. You can get them off ebay for about 30 bucks shipped.

Amida on the forum. He is making them and it is by far the best 355 bumper on the market. His craftmanship is AMAZING. I would buy any of his products in a heartbeat.
