Not tryin to pee in your Cheerios, but why gut the interior and then put 100 pounds of speaker in it? If you did that to a Honda wouldn't that be *gasp* rice?

Simple... Speakers are easily removable! at max 10 mins. Hmmm; Rice? I dont know import/domestic. It doesn't really have too much of a barrier importance to me. Look at all of the fiero mods being done now by everyone. where do you think most of the desire came from. We have finally started a market for ourselves and it is a good thing , import influence or domestic. I have only been driving it for the last 2 1/2 months(ITS been done for 8 months now) becuse I am always doing something and I have already been aproached by the production company of the FAST & FURIOUS import show and asked if I will show case it on their National Tour, and also a guy from NOPI Import talked to me about Taking it to Atlanta, unfortanately I am leaving to Europe for 3 months of traveling so I cant. So in all I was going for a European Supercar influence, and although it is domestic and I am very proud of that, it does't meen I dont like taking out imports on the 1/4 mile over and over again!!!!
Sorry I am wating on Jscott to post for some reason I can not do it, I can email pix if you would like to post for me, although you have to remove the pic of my brother.

Hey Greg your car looks great. It is very smoothed out, I like it. Sorry I missed you and Fakhari this past weekend. Sadly, I found out my brother has Leukemia, and I went up to LA to see him. He is only 36, so it really sucks.
But your car is great, and I hope you come to the BBQ this weekend so we can see it more.

First off Thanks to Black-azz for helping me unvail my fiero to the community!!! I dont have the specs, because I am at work and I had the engine done about 5 1/2 years ago so I forget although the engine has less than 10,000 on it 3,000 break in on engine , then 2,000 on a clutch, and again 2,000 on another clutch (just found out the syncs were bad) so i have really enjoyed 3,000. for the most part i can remeber a high lift cam longer duration, roller rockers, custom high flow injectors, springs, retainers, intake, and removable cat.

That is really a sweet car. Obviously good attention to detail. It's nice to see someone with a Fiero getting more attention from the import crowd because it makes us all look better. Cali is a little far, but maybe I'll get to see it in a show some time. As for the exterior, I think the front fascia is killer and I love the monitone.
DUDE! You are going to regret taking the center counsel out! Youre elbow WILL get smashed when it hits it. Learn from my mistake leave it IN!!!!! Very nice outher than that little concern. My interior is stripped as well but I retained the center padding. Is the roll over check valve annoying you yet he he

That's a sexy azz there! I've always wanted to see what the real F355 lights would look like on a fiero... Are they really real, or replicas? How much they run you? BTW, anything you can share about the bottom bumper F360 looking exhaust dealies? Are they completely one-off, or did you start with something and glassed it in?

Looks good! Although you don't see wheels like that very often on a Fiero, I think they look pretty good. But there is one thing that I'm wondering about, as I'm sure other people are too. What's going on with the front side marker light area?

Very sweet ride. I think I like Fieros without the side molding better than with now that I have seen a few. Too bad that wasn't the "in" thing back in the early 80's instead of lots of trim trend they all went thru (and some still are sadly), especially Pontiac Have you tried to get it inspected yet? If so, did you have any trouble doing so now that it is without the front turn signal lights for example?

Well I am finally back on my computor at work so I will try to answer some questions. When put the car in the shop to be painted I had some touch-up work that needed to be done. The front facia was one of them. I had explained t the shop how I wanted the front and rear bumpes to be REMOVABLE in case of some jacka$$ hitting me: we have a lot of them in Cali. well the rear was molded in and the front was never done, go figure if you want it done right you have to do it yourself. Needless to say we had issues! then when i took the car I inteded to fix it but as a F.T. educator and F.T. student who maintained a 3.8 GPA you can understand my car was not my top priority, so I never got to it then I started on the interior and I would like to take this time to thank JScott, MrFixit, and Malakyt for all helping me with the many questions I had with the dash install. As for inspection in cali we are not reequired to have one but you get fix-it tickets of $10. I want to also thank Kmunson for his flushmount light kit, they make the car look more exotic!!! especiallly when you color match them. This would explain why I have not really driven the car since it has been done I am currently looking at how to modify the light conversion so I can place a signal in the housing. I dont remeber any other questions so i willhave to return when I can. Thanks for all the Great complimets, It means so much more from you Guys and Ladies !!!!!
