This maybe a after-thought for you, if you do get hit by a granny or something in the front. You can then opt for PIAA headlamb kit #4000. They have a turn/light, driving light, fog light, and a blue pimp light. I don't know what the pimp light for? I don't have them installed yet.

Mostly nice, but the front end looks hiedous.. looks like its infected and swelling.. Never have been a fan of raised wings. and those 'real' taillights are ugly.. but overall, nice car

Thanks for compliments. It's going on the other soon-to-be choptop. They will be joined w/Celica headlambs and Saturn side markers. The pic is on the last page, enjoy. madcurl

I'll take it that I'm 'the other guy' .. Where would our cars be without critics? Thats why most ppl post pics of their cars. I'm not saying that your car doesn't look nice, it would.. I'd drive it but the front.. just looks.. weird to me. It'd prolly grow on me.

DotTC it was just a statement. We all have our likes and dislikes, this is reflected trough our cars. As we say "NO WORRIES"

I orginally got the info for Kameo Kid who posted some ideas. From my memory, I think they are 6 3/4 long x 31/4 height? and 3 1/2 deep? The site that kameo posted has the correct info. I got the PIAA 3000 but I found them too baby-ish for the opening. The ones that I got #4000 are bigger and will require some modification to the front fascia turn light housing but this is really no problem. The whole front fascia is getting re-done. However, the light was able to go-in backwards so that was good enough for me. I'll have my glass man cut-out some of the inner lip. It won't be flush but recessed back a little. Keep in mind, these are "all" pipe dream until its in, hehehe.
Not going to the Jun 5 event, I'm Going to West Fest? Yes (if nothing happens). I have the weekend off. It's the only major even out here so I'm goiing! Who know I might even have the Fiero Redux finished but not painted with just body molds like your only not painted with 20x11's. I just got off the phone with Tire Rack on the 345's and their in. I just need to mount those puppies on for a finale re-check on flare clearance. But this maybe a pipe dream on this one cause I have a 2.8 in it. I never trust them w/o having extra modules and coils.

Well first off your answer is in your question. Although only 17's these rollers still weigh a bit. so it is compromiseing by gutting out th einterior. You see out here in Cali the outside appearence is important as well much as speed! Interior is more for the car shows. Those of us who are serious respect a cars performance as much as apperance, Eye Candy doesnt mean much with out the HP to back it up, But on the other hand if your car is extremely fast and looks like SH@T well you dont really impress anyone. For us when we see a clean car and check the inside to see if it is gutted you know your dealing with a serious racer, who if they decide can toss the interior in and roll to the Show and well take home a trophy. An dwell as for myself the stock interior was nothing I was proud of, and was no loss. Wirth the F-bird interior I do actually like it and if I have the time when I return from my travels I may look into my sponsorship offers and decide to put it in; temporarily.....

Looks great, awesome! but like others have said - CHOP it (if that's what you like of course )! Front end is cool also The front end is similar to YellowFevers on here.
