I now have the "Angel Louver" Notchie decklid ready for final sanding & laying up the mold. Photos on the website. Who wants one? ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
No one is interested in the louver for EITHER the Fastback or Notchie? Seriously? After about 60 hours of R&D and about $500 of materials I sell only ONE part, to the person who initiated this thread? Sigh... ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
Bump. I'd like to recoup SOME of my money I invested in this thing if anyone wants to buy one. I know I'll never recoup my time. I could have had my pickup put back together or maybe had the VW running if I had not done this... ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
I haven't forgotten about you Paul , I like this vent so much that I'll definitely buy it at some point rather than make my own hehe. I'm hoping that before the summer ends I can do a road trip down to you with my spare cut up hood/ decklid pieces and we can trade

Summer is almost over... (although it doesn't feel like it...) Did you want a bolt-on hood? If so I need plenty of advance notice. I have the mold for the full skin, but I have not made the mold for the inner structure (for the fastback - which if I remember correctly is what you want). I quit making some molds 'cause I don't have the money to buy materials for things that aren't selling & I'm not using myself. Also, I'll need the metal pieces in order to install them in the inner structure before I can bond it to the skin... If you want a notchie decklid with the louvers I haven't made the mold for the skin yet, since there is zero interest in it. I do have the mold for the inner structure for the notchie as it will work with both the scooped decklid as well as the louver. ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
Sold a third. These things are a pain to both layup, & to make a box for to ship. Just did the math: at best need to sell at least 7 more at this price to break even. Expect a price increase soon. ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
I sooo want one eventually, would hate to see these disappear due to lack of interest.
Any word on the bolt on decklid mentioned on your site?
Haven't sold any more. I could do a bolt-on if someone wants it. I'd have to make the mold for the inner piece for the fastback if that's what you want. I have the *plug* made to make the louvered skin mold for the notchie, but don't plan to go any further with it due to lack of interest - not a SINGLE person wants one after allllll those that SAID they'd buy one (& allllll the time & money I spent working on one!). I do have the mold made for the inner piece for the notchie, that would work with the louvered skin should things ever change (the inner mold was made to use with the scooped decklid skin). ~ Paul aka "Tha Driver"
Even though my '87 GT is long gone after being t-boned and slamming into a parked car as a result- AND selling off 95% of my remaining Fiero parts, this vent is something I'm keeping for my next Fiero. I don't care if I have to hold on to it for 5 years before I get another Fiero, but I can't wait to install it. Its beautiful and I still can't wrap my head around why these aren't selling..
