they had to make 25 sets before they could get mine done now they will not ship for 2 weeks while they are at the show. oh well!
I am not in that big of a rush for them so I guess that it a good thing.
I will keep you all posted. |

I guess I'll see BonSpeed and you're of style rims in NV. During my trip, I was looking forward in seeing your rims.

Here is a possable Tweek question for all of you out here in Fiero land.
you have all seen my progress on this thread and the farther I get in to it the more I change but as I have been working on the car and looking it over one thing keeps catching my eye that I don't like on the car. I think I want to widen the bottom of the front facia to bring it out more to cover the front of the wheels.
can someone do a photo chop so I can see what it will look like?
I will wait to do this till I get my new wheels so I don't have to do it twice if I decide to do it at all.
here are some pictures to work with. thanks for any help or coments you can provide.
D.
I don't know if any of these pic's will work I will try to get more tonight.
the front facia curves under in front of the tire and shows more of the tire than I would like.
I want to widen the bottom sides only to cover the tire better.
post pic's or any comments you have. thanks, D.

IMHO, I'd wait until your rims arrive. As a rule (my own rule) fitting the body around the desired rim/tires comes first. If I may add, it no doubt will look good.

I have been working on the car this week but for some reason I was not able to pull up this site I don't know what happened if it was my computer or the site but it is back now.
I worked on a lot of different things on the car the rear fascia, rockers, doors, and the inside of the rear quarters.
on the rear quarters I cut them down and re fitted them to the chop and started glassing them back together.
I tweaked the rockers a bit I first started on the vent screens then I cut the front apart and widened them to take up the whole bottom of the front fender also I reworked the rear molding line to match the 355 lines better I will also do the front to match so it will be the same from front to back.
I was able to get the pass. door skin mounted and the wide body section glassed on.
yesterday I worked on the rear deck lid with the spoiler glassing it on. I have a lot more to do to the car.
I hope to start doing the fitting of all the parts soon but I think there will be a few more tweaks before I can do that.
I am waiting for my wheels so I can get them on and fit the wheel wells to them as well as widen the bottom of the front fascia to cover the front wheels better.
here are some pictures of what I have been doing.
I will keep you all posted. but the car still has a long way to go.
D.
