You're doing a great job on this project. I can't wait to see it completed and painted. Just one criticism. The lights you put on the fenders would look better if the lights were in front of the grilled part in my opinion. It looks great as is, I just think that would be a little better. But it is your project and I have great respect for you and your engineering skills.

tried that and they looked out of place because of the angled tip not matching the door and fender parting line
did not get any thing done on the front air dam today volintired to help my bud a member here to fix his brakes on his daily driver but will be back at it tomorrow come hell or high water I want it done
verdy interestin (sholtz) you finishest the dam exactly as it is going to be but would like the lights more out to the corners and lower but looks good for the first try
I have notticed that most of the members who followed this thead and have posted there Ideas are not around anymore I just wonder where they are now ? Have not see them posting on the forum.
I'm still reading. What is that spoiler from? I really like it on the Formula fascia albeit I wouldn't want the lights. How did you modify it to work on the Fiero unless I missed something some pages back.

"Let a man drive a Fiero and he'll own one. Teach a man to fix a Fiero and he'll own eight....errr...nine."
hey BubbaJoe, if you need my input just let me know ..I am in awe of your insight ..I think your project is an inspiration to all Fiero enthusiasts ..Imagine an extended wheelbase Fiero with a "proper motor and transaxle" from an artist needing input from anybody ..how modest ..keep inspiring us

BTW, I had a 800hp third gen Z28 and I just love how you incorporated the rear glass into the Fiero ..I love my Z like no other car except for Ferrari but I couldn't be faithful to her in the end ..Who could love a front engined American Ferrari over a mid engined American Ferrari? I would love it if you somehow added the 82 -83 crossfire injection intake ecm controlled hood flaps somehow into your work of art ...

it is 100 % home made using an old bumper section as the primary mold and complete bolt on for the 88 base nose
where are you have a front spoiler for you to photoshop
hey I'm still here checking out the thread every so often. I'll see if I can come up with some asap its just that I've been working 50+ hour weeks and trying to finish a school course as well. I'll see what I can do.
well here is todays update almost completed the spoiler just waiting on some ideas on the aux lighting .but did finalize the wet sanding and base primer so here are the pics
in these pics you can see how i mould the new air dam to the shape of the old flat dam
I think I will take today off so My body can recover mainly my shoulders to much sanding the good old rotater cups in my shoulders are shot and am akkin real bad . ood Old arthur itis
It looks as if its almost finished! Are you sure you want foglights there.....I really like the sleek look it has now... But you can take some pvc tubing (slightly larger radius than the foglights) to try out some mockups.. think they fit nice besides the mouth where you have the rectangle thingies in the corners.. take care.
there is still the rear bumper to do and the half size head lamps to do using olds cutlas supreem lights and markers and to install the right skirt and skirt scoops another months work then its ready to finalise the body prep for black epoxy primer and paint
It takes me a little longer than most when I work on the car because of my disability but I will get it done and done right .
All of the comments I get here help me out greatly in my desine of the car and keep me workin on it so thanks to everyone for the moral push you give me to keep up my work and all of you ideas that help as well
when to the body shop today and picked out a bumper shell I need to do the rear bumper extension and lower dam shape to house the new exhaust tips and plate .When finished it will also be a bolt on part .will start on it tomorrow morning need to clean the shell and pred it today
I have to honestly say that at the beginning I couldn't see myself liking this project at all. But now that I see the end result I have to admit that it came out great! You are an extremely skilled man. Great job
Joe; That is looking better all the time, personaly I think the best change came when you lost the station wagon look and went with the hatch. I know that it meant spending more time changing things, but it's time well spent. It really seemed to set the tone for the whole project, I can't wait to see it finished.
