Rodney Dickman sells the stainless pipes - Direct bolt on to the stock muffler - If you have a standard trunk he is the only game in town due to the complex bends - After shopping the custom exhaust people in my area his price was the best by a long shot - not cheap, the best!

Mine are now 409 stainless steel like the OEM Fiero exhaust system. Making them in 304 was really tough so I switched to 409 now. You can have them coated in black and then they look just like the OEM pipes from Corporate Concepts. Theirs were mild steel and ceramic(?) coated. The rusted from the inside out.

Hello Rodney - I'm very happy with mine (fit perfect). Have you ever considered a slightly extended chrome or high polish tips as an option? I did buff mine up a bit but as they sit deep within the "diaper" they don't stand out as much as I would like. Thanks again for all you do.

And hey Rodney was this a mera thing I've never seen these

The funny looking piece on top of the inner door panel was a trim piece that came with some of the 308/328 kits. It came with mine (a Fejer kit, made in Canada), but I never liked the looks of it so I never installed them. Since the outer door skins go up higher on the Mera/308/328 kits, this piece was designed to prevent vehicle occupants from seeing the raw fiberglass of the "back side" of the outer door panel.

Edited to add: Remember that the letters "M E R A" were harvested from a mid 1980's Pontiac Grand Am SE. So, if you want to replicate the MERA letters on the rear deck lid, you might start looking through the boneyards for older Grand Ams.

ok so next and final gremlin, My interior lights do not work at all doors open or with the button, I think it may be the dimmer switch but I'm not 100% sure, my dash lights all still work (aside for the havac control) could the dimmer switch still be my problem?
