Once agin, you have some great ideas. I wish I had another Fiero to try all f them out. I DO like the way you brought the middle door out to meet the quarter. It is kinda bothering me, but the reason is because I need that scoop to actually function on the Drivers side for the air intake. If I bring the door out to meet it, I will be blocking that functionality (unless I find a way to make the door portion part of the air intake) . Those openings you see (the scoops) will have some sort of grill when finished. I just don't want to go making anything like that until the finished product. What I don't like is the way you cut the top of the door. Just doesn't do it for me. Let me see if I can do some moch up's and post them for criticism.

Thanks for the ideas once again.

the scoop could be still used, just ,make it so there is a vent at the back and a vent in the back panel. basicly make it a tunnel you could use some mesh in the door jam to alow the air to go to the back. also with this vent you could keep your door handle and kep it hidden.

Well, the wing is just about done. What would you pay tohave your wing extended???? Let me know, I may take on this custom wing deal.




Cant see the ruler, but it is now about 66" long. I didn't measure it before I ut it, but I can tell you it is 5 1/2 " longer now.
If I would have thought of it when it was cut, I could have installed a really nice 3rd break light. Damn!!!




Just about ready for Primer. I will finish the bottom side and prime it tomorrow.

the fin looks awsome

The wing is primed and mounted. Waht do you think?? Also, I pulled it out of the garage to get a wider view on things. I am pretty satisfied so far.





Here are some of a wider view::





This is what the wing looks like from the drivers side and no mods to the body.




A few more of the whole car::

I know this is very premature, but I thought I might give you some inspiration or visuals for final shapes. No matter what happens, I'm sure it's going to look good!


The wheels came from here:
