everything fits perfectly.

Well I had a couple concerns with the scoops being a little high. My original plan was not to do this, as stated above, and keep it as low as possible.. I'll fool around with that way tomorrow and take some more pictures, I'll post both complete pictures and have you guys decide. I'd rather not cut up a nice GT bumper... But but but.... Its just sooo easy...

Wow.... is that bumper made for the Fiero? It fits so nicely. Doesn't look at all out of place.

Looks alot like a coupe nose from this angle..

If you look closely in that caravan bumper you will see where I got my hood scoop. The Dodge grill is nicely modified to make for a great scoop. I am going to go play with my car for a little while, and take a couple more pictures. I am also getting alot of foam today, so this will be a good week

Dude, if you run with the chin spoler that low on winnipeg streets the way they are you will have that whole custom effort ripped off in no time. But what do i know, i only own the second lowest fiero in winnipeg....

I understand where you are coming from, as the "lowest fiero" in winnipeg had his oil pan smashed off by a pot hole. However you guys worry too much.

When I remove the lip spoiler, Measurements are as follows (Approx)

Stock Bumper
12" Long from middle of hood tip
Mine
12" Long from middle of hood tip
Stock Bumper
12" Tall from center bumper
Mine
12" Tall from center bump
Stock Bumper
15" side along the wheel well from the fender
Mine
12" side along the wheel well from the fender

My bumper is even higher from the ground than the stock fiero (w/o) the lip. Now the lip is only 4 inches, davy's lip from fiero warehouse was 3.5-4 inches...

How do I know that? Well...

That means I "can go" another 1" out, another 2" lower on the tip, and another 6 inches lower on the side for a lip if I need be, and not have to worry about rubbing it on everything. Still only 2" lower than stock, with the sides being only 1" lower.
Also the fenders are only going to widen 1" more in the front, 2" in the rear, and 2-4" on each side rear with a custom rear bumper never seen before! I had plans of modifying the rear bumper, well thats just too easy. I want something more, and I will lengthen the rear of the fiero's bumper. It'll be good.

I think its time for some more pictures...... Muahahhah


SMILES!

Stock VS Mine. Actually very similar in size. My bumper needs a lip to complete it though, and a widebody, it doesn't go with the rest of the boxyness of the fiero, so thats going to change. That "grey" portion at the top of my bumper is actually a piece from an 85 coupe bumper..making it easy for me to see what needs to be blended. In case anyone is interested in doing something like this, its fun as heck and not that hard! You just need to imagine! I have 5 spare bumpers from other cars, and 4 fiero bumpers so that I can test which ever I want!

I love how this bumper looks similar to the 355 bumper, but a little more relaxed...
