Amida, please post some more update pictures. I love to see your work. It's gorgeous!

Not much happening on the Formula project lately...just been focusing on getting the Fi512 nose completed.

I can't wait! Any ideas on the cost yet?

Thanks,
Paul

Rob,
did you ever start making these caps?

Rob,
Really would like to send you some cash and get this new f355 dash in black. Thanks.

The molds are finished but I haven't produce any yet...been too busy with work & other projects.

Rob,
well when you do make them, let me know i need a pair like those posted above (regular carbon fiber).
i can clear coat them with polyurethane so you don't have to kill yourself getting em all pretty and shiney like that.

Okay.

Finally some updates here! I'm dying to see this thing finished

Is it just me, or does this nose remind anyone else of a 3rd gen camaro? I like it!

Not much to report...maybe will have some time on it in the winter.

WOW!
Rob, that nose looks awsome...the way it should have looked from the factory!

Test fitting Fi355 interior, for stock Fiero door height. '88 Fiero grey/black vinyl.

This blue vinyl got me thinkin' of changing to blue when the F6 is ready for paint. I'm also wondering if the 355 rear spoiler section of the decklid from my abandoned spider will work on the F6 as well.

Final mockup of Fi355 dash before uphostery.

Those are nice they go so well with the dash. Now how about a F40 door panel to match the F40 dash I'll split the cost of your R&D?

Nice, I was just wondering about this vinyl yesterday. IIRC you said it was for typical sign applications, not automotive, right? The color is beautiful.
Here's what I'm probably going to wrap my Camaro with:
Azure Blue Metallic
http://www.signfilm.com/uk/...duit.asp?id=3009&p=2

It's Oracal 970RA, nice quality and designed for solid color vehicle wraps and isn't too hard to work with (I've done some small pieces with it):

Yes...I used sign vinyl...it has no air release grid on the back side makes it difficult to get the bubbles out. Next time I will use the correct wrapping vinyl.

Thanks. Joe

I'll have a look at it.

I wonder if the Fiero instrument cluster can be simply chopped down to fit this profile...if the darn thing wasn't so massive it could be adopted more easily in newer dash designs.

quote Originally posted by Amida: It's still a work in progress, but the Fierovation widetrack "Z" rocker is taking shape very well. Thinkin' about mounting Will's new Pegasus badges. This is just a paper printout.

Will this kit be for sale one day... to be compatible with a stock fiero nose (and closed mouth chin spoiler)? I'm into this look way more than the mad arch kit, or IMSA wide body. I'd love to have one of these on the road!

Possibly, but it's very early in the design stage....may end up much different. Rockers do not attach to the fascia so I imagine any nose will do. But, the fender flares must be trimmed to each nose profile.

Sounds good, I hope the design doesn't stray too much! Although I do trust your taste in design. I'd love to own something like this one day.

Rob
I'm very interested to see what you come up with here. I have been looking for a good rear spoiler that will flow with your Fi355 nose.
