You make me want to own a chop-top. Enjoy the verry nice car in Cali., your baby is home now.

Madcurl,
I gotta say that I wondered how this car would turn out at first but I gotta say that it is now one of the most off the charts badass looking Fiero's anywhere. It really looks awesome and you have in your own words "tweaked it to perfection" LOL Congratulations man it is a real piece of work and the paint looks real nice even in pictures. In my book so far this custom and the wicked notchback widebody red car with the turbo vette engine, and the widebody NON-chopped yellow car and of course Troyboys car are the top fieros around here amazing work guys.,..peace

You should really consider having your car professionally photographed.

Actually, I'm shocked that #020 is resting inside my garage for I had know idea the shop was going to finish the car last week. This might sound crazy, my thoughts have been looking at #020 body lines and what I can tweak from onto #015. LOL. I also spent the entire weekend looking at different lights and other tweaks to be made on #015. My observation (in my mind) I think it's a winner and will look sleeker and more exotic than #020. I've spoken to V8Archie so he knows I'm coming with the car. Thus what I couldn't do on #020 I will have done on #015 using the MadArch widebody kit. This time it's going to be called, "The Arch Nemsis."





As for the car, I need to head down to the local DMV. The temp tag has expired and I need to get started with that SB100 crap. It's a pain having to go through it all over again even though the testing should be done like the other states-FROM THE TAIL PIPE!!! I already had the CHP, brake, and lamp inspection. As for the Audi running lights. I need to stop by WCF and have Steve make a simple bracket and attach the light either to the C6 or fog lamp housing. However, I need to have the rear HRE chromed and that might take several weeks.

Sounds like a good idea, but for now-that's more like July of 2013 or so. I need to get the interior and some minor tweaks on the outside done first.

Car battery: DOA



I got a new one free of charge.

Now that's the type of rear end I like looking at.




I got a chance to buff the rear wheel, but rain caught me so I only got one side. It took me at least 45-min to buff one wheel and it's still not completed. Lots of over spray ended up on the wheel. I used the polishing samples I gotten from SEMA.




Started raining; to be continued

The shop had to repaint the Camero hood vents, but overall I'm pleased with the outcome.



The simple, but yet important hood tweaks fit nicely with the rest of the body.

Re-hooking the wires today.




Now that the rear hatch is painted red I will have to ditch the black for red.
