If you don't like that style then that isfine as you are welcome to your personal opinion and personal tastes just as we all are, including Jordan. He knows what he wants and knows what he likes which is the Fast & Furious look. His mother, grandfather and I are trying to incorporate that look and feel on an ongoing basis into his Fiero as best as we can and on as low a budget as possible 
As for my dream Fiero, it's an Indy and it is sitting in the driveway right next to his

Hey, Steve, even though it's Jordan's car, you still seem to put it it out there as if you are Jordon. He's the kid in the pics, but you spend a lot of money on this car and he's only 10, I believe. Plus, you put up soooooo many pics of this thing that at some point people are going to start telling you that enough is enough. Heck....I didn't think that your Fiero could get any ricier.......but I was wrong. It's great that you and Jordan have something to work on together and teach him, but there are a lot of people on here that absolutely have no respect for the ricer mentality because of what it represents and you keep posting different threads about this riced up Fiero. The more you post, the more some folks want to let you know that they've had it with Jordan's Fiero.

firefox are you aware that the entire world is filled with things you do not agree with or admire and that you have the power not to click on the links to these things. Just a thought. Everyone has different interests and ideas of what looks good. I dont think I would go in that direction but I dont think it my place to judge and if I dont like it I know I can not click on the post and certainly not go to the trouble of posting in it. so, a lot of people have followed this car for a while and are interested in its progression. The car should be fun and if you have to worry what the fiero people will say when you are deciding what to do, that doesnt sound too fun...

Well, I think it is horrible looking. That being said, if Steve and Jordan like it and are having fun, good for them. To each his own.
I do have a question though; If you wanted to be like F&F why not just get an Eclipse?[This message has been edited by Lex (edited 03-29-2004).]

I love how a few sneak peak pics of a few neon lights in his Fiero can stir some people up so much Firefox, I put it out there as Jordan doesn't know how to post.... yet. If and when I do something with say my Indy or another one of "my" Fieros, I will be on here just like we have with Jordans and just like everyone else on here does at one point or another showing off the latest
And yes you are right, we do spend a lot of money on his car. He's 10. How much allowance a week do you really think he gets? Yes, at times we post quite a few pics of what we are doing on this particular Fiero. Mainly because we seem to be doing a lot on it quite often.
This has actually been a lot of fun for all of us involved (which was the idea) so we are kinda proud of the different things we have tried in working with our son to get the look he wants. Jordan is not unlike the rest of you as he certainly likes to show off the latest changes just like the many other threads we have on here from lots of others who like to show off the latest on their ride. Some ideas we have tried worked quite well and some others didn't work so well, like the purple trim and wide mouth nose for a few examples Lex, we are a Fiero family, not an Eclipse family. I would have loved to had a chance to mod up an Eclipse but alas all we had was this green painted Fiero that Jordan took a liking of which that story was allready explained in detail in another thread. I agree FieroHarry and I don't have a problem with constructive critism, especially when asked for

Hey, it's a PUBLIC forum. And now it is my turn to rant: Fiero owners tend to get highly insecure on this forum when talk of other sports cars is brought up. Many owners try and convince themselves that the Fiero ranks up there with the best of them, that the duke is a performance engine etc. Personally I believe the Fiero can be up there with "the best of them", Cali-Kid, MadCurl, Ski-Time, Kameo Kid, Chester, Archie have proved this. The flip side of that coin is the people who turn their Fieros into 4x4's, three wheelers, trailers, and yes tacky ricers. It takes away any credibility our Fieros have as “real sports cars”. After all, who turns a Corvette in a three wheeler? Or a 911 into a trailer? (Spare me the far and few examples, as it is practiced on Fieros more often than on "real sports cars").
What's the old saying? Something like, "The suit makes the man"? What would you rather have, a tacky "used car sales man suit", or a Brooks Brothers? Edit: I am sick tonight. Excuse my spelling and grammar. [This message has been edited by Lex (edited 03-29-2004).]
