This car would be the absolute ultimate if it was modded to use a fastback rear deck lid and GT tail lights.

I just had the ball joints replaced last summer, but those are both options I've been looking into

If you buy the front spoiler from FieroWarehouse, and modify to suit your taste,
it would come close.

I've seen Fieros that looked worse turned around. Grasshopper shall practice patience, will even stop drinking caffine to help him do so.

I do like those wheels on tesmith66's project. What are they?

17x7 ADR Formula 5. They are no longer available, though
Got them last year off ebay for $350 shipped
They are 48mm offset, but the 11.25" brake swap and some 8mm wheel spacers (cut from old rear rotors) will fix that. The factory Fiero lug nuts and covers fit perfectly, so I didn't have to get any special hardware.
The tires are 225/45R-17 Kuhmo Ecsta 711
