Great job by the way.

You can call me a modifying master then! lol
I fact every morning I briefly check if the fiero is complete, before driving to work
Sometime ago I got a ticket for "malfunctioning front turnlights", well I had no excuse, they simply were not there at all! Good thing about it being a daily driver is you learn to think about how to mount parts before you even build them...Designing parts is only half of the job, making them work and fit easy is the other half of the job...!
I was going to get a spare dash for the mods but this still works great. I guess I will look around for a set of used stock doorpieces though when I get to do them.

I guess I showed the wrong finger to the cop!

Started the bondo+sanding thingie on the glovebox pieces:


It will need much more bondo+sanding but the final shape is slowly coming
another testfit/mockup:

Finally some progress.....and some pics
Started smoothing some parts:


Looks like the glovebox door will be the first candidate for a mold, now it only needs wetsanding and waxing.

I think I will do the final product in the (upper style) CF:

And I put this reminder in the garage today so I dont get sidetracked But luckily I still manage to stay close to the original concept!

Just read it. Cool find! Looks like you had some fun today. If I knew earlier you were going I would have driven to Eindhoven to meet and have a nice day. Oh well no one expected the nice weather today.....and you called before I had my coffee so I didnt thought about that!
