Well as we talked about in the past, I think it may have been a year or two. I am very interested. I am glad to see you are back working on the Fi512 I have always liked it the best. How long until you have it ready for sale? I lost my job of 12 years last March and pretty much my career of 20 years, I have been looking for a year now and there is not much out there for civil designers as no one is building anything substantial right now or will be anytime soon. I am working a new career but it might take a while maybe 6 months to a year, so if that is a time frame you are looking at I am in, I hope.

Talk about incredible, is that a photoshop? I wish we had more aftermarket options of front bumpers in the fiero world, IMO thats the only department we lack in.



I couldn't agree more! It would've been perfect if that's the way they came from the factory!

Amida, your sketch of your Fi512 nose looks great, but is there any way you can make the bottom lip more like this one? If possible, count me in too!

It does look nice, but I'm sticking with the Ferrari 512tr style. It's a known & recognized exotic with a racing pedigree which brings a certain appeal when combined with the Fiero. It wouldn't be as exciting if I said it was a modified Honda bumper would it?

Also, I'm not knocking Honda...very reliable cars, but I have that same bumper on my minivan. I'd like to stick with something a little more exclusive.

While researching lighting options I found thes Chevy S10 truck LED turn signals. us$109/pr. They might fit if the tail end is cut off. May still be on the tall side however.

I figured you were long gone.....Sorry about your layoff. I got laidoff once which is how I came to doing this. I may still be doing this in a year...we'll see.

If it can be opened maybe, but alot of lights are bonded together water tight. Also, not sure if LEDs can be legally used as headlights.

You do have a good point. Can you PM with the total amount you need (I want a grille too) and where to send the money. I will have the money at the end of the month. Thanks!
