I would take the blue one any day too. I would remove the wing and the can, but the car looks pretty good. I even liked the wheels. That red one just looks pieced together to me. Those side panels (fake widebody? WTF!?) and that Faux355 nose just don't fit the car at all. Then the missing headlight doors mess up the lines even more. It's almost like whoever put it all together just picked the easiest parts to change, then picked random parts to change them for, with no regard for body lines or themes or any kind of style.

Yeah, its the end, if you dont upload your masterpiece to teh internetes you know, there is no obligation to show your piece of **** /crafts to wide world... and when world kicks it back, die as man, man
Never ask for opinions if you've already made your mind up or are easily offended, because not all opinions will be what you want to hear. No point asking if the thread just turns into a screaming match between you and others.
I'm sure some people are horrified at what I've done with my Indy, but I think most still think it's tasteful even if it's not something they would have done. Always gets on the street!

Bahahaha. Ah, kids. And 74-82 Vettes aren't particularly impressive. Most of them can be had cheaper than Fieros. And is the Hummer a Hummer, or is it a rebranded Suburban? Saying "I'm not a ricer, I also have these other bland cars," isn't really much of an argument. If you're not, that's fine, but the constant back and forth in this thread doesn't help you one way or the other in making that argument. It just provides amusement for everyone else.
Aa hahahahahaha Oh no u hurt my feelings. What a pussy
I dont see you lasting long on here with an additude like that.
Also for real.. my spelling is horriable but please dont butcher up the english language.... we all passed first grade here and were not on a cell phone, its spelled You not u.

This fiero looks like a total pile of dog crap. Oh, btw you are well over 300hp. The giant wing add 100 and the fart can add 20. Hell, you are a nos sticker and a boost gauge reading vacuum away from 400!

WOW! you guys are harsh anymore... crazyness. It's been a while since i've been posting but tonight was a special night.
Man,,,, "Ricing" a fiero has been done here a few times. All of them seem to get flamed here sooner or later. Don't let it get to you and don't bother responding to the haters. On that note...
They call big wings, spoilers because it spoils the look of the car. But that's just my opinion. But it will provide a great handle for when you need to push it home from the NOS... kinda like a shopping cart. been there, NOS + 2.8 = KABOOM!
Maybe if you change the angle of the muffler you can get away with it ascetically. Maybe customize the bumper to make it more pleasing to the eyes. Again, just my opinion.
As for the Hummer... sorry man, if it's not an H1 it's not a hummer in my eyes. Its a over priced, over glorified suburban. Good truck from what i hear but not a rugged real Hummer they really should re-badge them. It's false advertising. Not your fault though... a lot of people bought into the hype.
Last but not least... the vette... loved the look of them but the engines needed help. Very under powered. Maybe tone it down a little and but the NOS in there.
All of this is just my opinion. Remember: "Opinions are like a*holes, everybody has one and they all stink!"

Bboyballistik- If you plan on going fast, like triple digits fast, I would invest in some kind of hood modification. The Fiero at triple digits tends to rise in the front, it can get pretty hairy. I am surprised no one has mentioned it to you. LOL!
Okay, you asked people for their opinion and they gave it to you. I have been on here for a little while and have relized that some people on here are brutally honest, that's why I come on here and ask for opinions, I like people to be honest. I don't get butt hurt about it, I respect their opinion, tell everyone I appreciate their feedback and drive on. Personally, I hate wings and fart cans on Fieros, but that's me. If that is what you like then do it, don't care about what others think. I can respect the fact that you own a nice Fiero and you want it to be unique to you, and I think you should stick to your guns. My friends gave me a hard time with my yellow Fiero GT, until they saw what it could do or if they rode in it, then they would be like Wow! Just do what you want, make a build thread, there are people on here that have the same taste as you do. Just don't bash people when they give you an honest opinion that you asked for, you won't gain any respect from people on here or you will make some enemies or get banned from the forum real fast. We all share at least one thing on here, we all like Fieros, just in different flavors.
P.S.- Factory 2.8's don't like NOS. I put NOS in a Camaro with a 3.4 in it and it lasted for about 30 seconds. Sure I went real fast, for 30 seconds. LOL!
You people are retarded. If you actually read the threads .. I sold the wing and the muffler is gone. Haha n i didnt as for any opinion on my hummer or vette.. You people are kind enough to give me such great feedback which i hold dear to my heart! Thank you all

I am curious. How old are you? Calling people retarded is a bit immature. "How to Win Friends and Influence People" by Dale Carnegie is a good read too.

Seriously? I don't have all day at home to sit and read every post on a 4 page thread that asks for an opinion on the first few posts. Just skimmed a bit, so sorry i missed your every word. I only posted about them cause i did see in browsing that you were getting crap for them. Maybe they have been justified in flaming you... Enjoy your short stay on the forum.

Yea cause my one goal in life is to be on a fiero forum haha u ****in loser.

Do u see these other posts? I can say whatever i want when people bash on cars i worked soo hard for. Yes, im ony 25. I hav a vintage corvette, a brand new hummer and a fiero that i bought as a toy for the track which i just started working on. Ive been on my own sence i was 17.. Raised by my only sister because both my parents died when i was little.. I hav never had money or anything.. And i had to bust my ass to get where i am. Nothing was ever handed to me! I highly doubt any of these older " gentlemen" on here had such nice cars when they were my age.. So i get **** for it. Im used to it tho
I may be immature but i take alot of pride in whats mine. Ive tried to be nice n make a couple friends on this forum.. But its the internet. People can say whatever they want without any consiquence. Do you honestly think i started this thead on my car to be a jerk to people?
I didnt mind criticism. I expected it. And i took some advice. The wing is gone and i love the car without it.. And no **** the nos will blow the engine... I built my first truck. I dropped a 350 from a junk yard into a 85 s10 blazer on my own when i was 15.. Im not new to cars.
I respect peoples honest opinions. And i do apologize for any retaliation.

You need to learn something about the world: You can't say whatever you want, without consequence; even if it is the Internet.
And yes, it does sound like you joined the forum simply to be a jerk to people. Every other post you've made has been inflamatory to anyone who's posted in this thread. Calling everyone a retard, ******* , whatever the new word of the day is, will only get you banned pretty quickly. If you want to share your car and ask opinions about it, then man up and stop being a reactionary child. Post some actual progress on your build, instead of trying to get into arguments with everyone. It's a forum; if you don't want opinions on something, then don't post about it.
EDIT: Well, nevermind. Already banned it seems.

Well, yeah - he DID have some knee-jerk reactions and started bad mouthing people AND the forum. Sounds like a good candidate for RFT and the name-calling egos there.

Wow that was quick. I am only 21 and he acts like one of those gangster high school kids, every word out of his mouth has to be disrespectful. He is one of those people that make me wonder why we protect his freedoms, then I remember all the grateful people that live everyday thankful for their freedoms and proud Americans.

I'm not quite sure what warranted the guy getting banned.
I agree he wasn't THAT bad just overreacted to the opinions he asked for. The problem was that he was new and didn't have any/enough positive ratings to offset the people he pissed off enough to neg him. Just out of curiosity I looked at mine. No negs but I only had about 5 positives and I have helped a lot more people than that. I think it's the old cliche when you make someone mad they try to do something about it but if you help someone they don't even think about giving a positive. (I'm guilty of that myself sometimes)

You sure about that? I only see a way to view ratings I've given, not how many positive/negative/neutral I've received exactly.
