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.

Lately I've been just working on the Fi512 nose model which is just about ready for tooling. I thought I'd use some scrap vinyl and wrap my custom fender flare to see how it'll look with the new nose. I would probably add a carbon splitter at the bottom to tie everything together.

Shipping off the only fi355 nose that I had at the moment, the one that was on my own test pegasus. Greyhound packageXpress has been the least expensive way to send a large package such as this. It'll find a new home in Ft. Lauderdale.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
