Looks great David, (nice to see you visit Ari's, too). The wing looks real good, but I would suggest fiberglass wing stands.

I like the old 70's era coffee table legs sticking out of the bottom, too.

I still want one Dave! Just waiting for the flared version ready for my car! It is looking good

Great work,

Thanks

MAN those flares are NICE !!!!

This may sound crazy, but would an 88GT look good with your front end with flares and a stock rear section with the rear flares ? Any Photoshoppers wanna do one ? Can this be done ? Personally I've always liked the factory fiero GT rear end but those flares are irresistable ..

bump for Dave's flares .....

Wow!!
This is an awesome thread! Makes me want to do more stuff to my Fiero.
I alread spent an entire winter in the garage a couple years ago. Maybe it's time to do it again!

Please keep us posted.

And thanks for the details - I love what you're doing.

One question, though. I would like to construct an air dam for my Mazda RX8. How did you make a mold for your air dam? I can see that you used the expandable foam for the flares but I don't think I saw too much on the front dam. Any info would be appreciated.

RCR,
I really like the open forums where ideas are shared, too. Pennock's and Ari's are tops. BTW, I thought that was real resourcefull, using the coffee table as a work stand :]

Robert,
Hang in there, the flares will be finished soon. They do look good, Blackrams has given them his nod of approval, so I'm proceeding on with them.

Paul,
First chance I get I'll set the front clip that has the flares onto a chassis with the doors still attached. Maybe someone could Photoshop it a bit easier then.

Voytek,
Thanks. I will say that the front air dam took more preliminary thinking thru than almost anything. Right now it's about 1/2 way thru shaping, and the front clip it's on is upside down on the work table. I promise to get a rightside up picture in this weekend sometime.

Hey now, those professional looking stanchions were my idea. Oh, OK, we'll try to come up with something a little different than these.
News Flash: Just thought of this, Styrofoam Cups would make a great stanchion, light weight and aerodynamic (somewhat), different heights available, 8 oz., 10 oz., or 16 oz. for the really raised look. When not in use, can be used as orginally intended, well, maybe.

Oh man, I can feel my wallet starting to get lighter .... and there's not that much in there to start with .....

Can you make a bolt-on clip that looks like this ?

Maybe leave off the lower spoiler / air dam and make it tilt. YOWEEEE ...

Nice pics. Now does anyone know where we can get some similar looking wheels at a reasonable price.
