ps How are my scoops coming along



Ebay won't give me a paypunks account & they won't let you sell without it. They even reject an auction that has the words "money order" in it! I thought about trying anyway, & just have the folks "contact me for payment info".

Sorry I meant to email you an update: STM scoop is ready to ship; STM hood vent is waiting for mat to make the mold. Expecting mat tomorrow or Fri.
Thanks,
Paul

Ask & yee shall receive. http://angelonearth.net/customfiberglass/RC.html
Tell me which one you like best, & what (if any) changes you think it needs. Keep in mind if I make the shorter sail panels to go with the kit they probably won't look like the stock ones (but maybe close).

THe first reverse looks good, but the second reverse choptop looks like a pain to get dewwipes for? but still looks good nonetheless

The Mera door panels come up higher but they didn't move the dew wipes. Which comes to another problem: they also used an inner panel to extend the door panel to match the door skin.
I think neither of those designs are best. The first one IMO is not quite radical enough, & as I said doesn't blend well with the fender. The second one doesn't flow well with a STOCK Fiero - would look better with other mods. The best design would require modifying the fender slightly. I may try a concept of that sometime soon. The thing is, the more that needs modifying the more the kit will cost, & less folks that will buy it.

OK I got it now. Check out the third concept image. I've highlighted the fender edge with a line for clarification. http://angelonearth.net/customfiberglass/RC.html
Still; we're talking about an 8 piece kit (door skins, 1/4 extensions, sail panels, inner door panel extensions) so it wouldn't be cheap.

That looks pretty sweet! The 3rd one certainly makes the body line flow better than stock. I'm imagining this going well with whodeanie's new wide rear fenders. Is this going to be notchie only?

It will be Notchie only unless there are several folks with fastbacks willing to pony up. Also, it'll be quite some time before I do this on a notchie without the same circumstance (that being several folks willing to send a deposit & wait for the R & D). I DO want to do this on my T-Top (with a lot of the other mods) but it's third or fourth on the project list.
