Still far from finished. I have to wait for warmer weather for the fiberglass portion of the build but am liking the 300zx lights more and more.

So...where would you begin to look for a complete set of these, in decent shape?



This would work perfectly behind my tinted panel idea...

Not only do you need to take pics of the front, but also side profile pics. If the headlamps are too steep they won't work with the Fiero's nose. You'll need to find a pair of headlamps that are flat or with lesser steepness. The Celica and NSX fits the Fiero nose.

Otherwise you'll need a different front clip. That was case regarding the Corvette headlamps.

Whose car is this ??

I saw this car at the 25th anniversary show in Michigan.



At first i did not like them and said yuck ! But after studying them for a bit i suddenly realized where i had seen something like them before and it reminded me of the Pagani Zonda ! Boy did my opinion change.







I now like them !! Hmmmm,......?

Nice headlamp, but the Pagani Zonda headlamps won't work due to the pitch and angle of the lamps (you'd need a Norm's flipper). Secondly the Zonda isn't available in the USA (legally), and thirdly (most important) the Zonda's would be very, very expensive....most likely more than Lamborghini or Ferrari headlamps making them 100% impractical.

Yep. I think those are the best lights for the stock Fiero front end. It will take some work though, unfortunately there's sheetmetal right where it needs to be.

Oh, did you ever get that blower put on? Or am I talking out my ass?



If you want headlights that pop out of nowhere, and you want something totally unique that's 'outside the box', then you should employ some low profile headlights, but have the entire front edge of the hood raise up when they come on. It sounds retarded, but the way I have it envisioned in my mind, it could be pretty cool. You'd only need it to pop up about an inch, maybe inch and half, then you could use an LED headlight system like the R8. I always liked the old muscle cars where the headlights just appeared from the grill (can't think of the car it was on...). Anyway, that's my 2 cents...

Someone last summer lost a 2007 Mustang headlight in front of my house.
I mean the whole unit.
Ever since I picked it up { the guy was high on something and never came back to the accident site} I wondered if it could be put into the nose of a Fiero.
Could someone photo chop that for me please?
