Again, Thanks FieroWannabe

Can you imagine this with fender flares, 19/20 (20x12), & chop'd?

Gotta be honest, I wasn't really feeling this at first but now? WOW!!!! Can you fill the wheel well in the front and make it all one color? Yellow would be cool. Great job

Dang! It's looking better each day. Project: "Pipe Dreams" are nearing completion, hehe.


Hmm. You might as well photoshop the HRE's wheel up front, hehe.

Edit: Oh yeah, can you remove the black doorline markers? Make it all one color?

It was at first but....no. It's for the Stealth Fiero at Archie's. # 15 will sport the duel hood vents that's similar to the Redux's.

While your at it, could you remove the lower door molding too and bring the Corvette side marker forward...just a little bit and down a little bit?

The one obvious difference is the Fiero Windshield is shorter and flatter. The one thing I hope to change on the chop t-top is to go with a windshield that bubbles out more and shortens the hood. That gives the whole front end a more aggressive look to me.

Kind of like this:

Great Job Fierowannabe ! I am going to have you tinker with some stuff for me if you don't mind.

Hey curly that looks exactly like you described ! Though you did forget to raise the wing !
Who was it that earlier said this looks a little ricey ??

Uh care to reconsider ??

If Madcurl is doing it, it is going to look good,..write it down and take it to the bank !

This thread is "Surreal.". Although the rear is photoshop'd we know it's been done and that Norm is working on Corvette lamps. The last time this happened was with the Redux when Kameokid photoshoped it and the finished product was the same as the photoshop.

Corvette lamps: Check

Corvette side markers: Check

I can't wait for Archie's talent for the rear clip. But that's another thread, hehe.

I like the work you did with the tilt, and the wide body looks very testarossa/512tr-ish, good work, I really just tried to visualize what madcurl had cooking, and slowly mocked up his whole design for him, But I really like what you have envisioned

Thanks FieroWannabe for doing the photoshop the way I invisioned. Although I like yours too Fourtpoint9....both styles, no doubt look very good and I would love to have both. Just like the Redux, those who perform the photoshop share "in" the over-all creation and enjoyment. The idea is to learn from one style and then transfer those ideas onto another pipe dream. Besides, who wants the same style throughout, right?

You guys, Fill free to add your input in re-arranging various parts. IMO...."Tweekness is my weakness."


Edit: Oh yeah, could someone (photoshop) and raise the rear wing? Please, add your comments if you like. This modificatio is opened for debate, but no flames.

Thanks.

I just got off the phone with Norm. He'll send the pic next week.
I think he wanted the modification to look pretty or something?

Thanks FieroWannabe for raising the wing.

did some tweeking here and there....I guess -since the headlights will be fixed to the flipper- it shouldnt be hard to change its shape by cutting the lensecover where desired and extending the hood in that area...add a new seal and voila!

Hehehe. Looking good. Funny that a special person is working on bringing the sides in as we speak.

Latest photoshop. Hmm....could you elongate the deck lid vents like on #15? They look "blunted" at the distal ends. A little wider vents and reduce part of the sail windows outward just alittle? The special person is bringing the sail windows inward by 2-3" as we speak.


I love this thread. It's a "work" in progress theard.
