It is so cool watching projects as they come together and it sure looks like you have a winner there ! Can you tell us how much the rims and tires ran you and from where you got them ?
RIms really transform a car, especially fieros !

Vey nice- some of the nicest I've seen in a while... About those things on the hood though, I think that they take away from the car. The car itself overall is really looking good!

These wheels are a little small by Curley standards but WAY better than stock. I like the 17/18 combo. The Fiero definitely needs bigger wheels in the back.
So when are you bringing this ride west? How about coming to the Ruckus in Austin this fall?

You and I are on the same wavelength, but you are wayyy ahead of me here. I'm using 15/16's (man i feel wimpy all of a sudden) on my notchback GT clone and I am getting ready to stick the trans am vents in the fenders, smooth the antenna hole. I already have the mustang scoop, and I've almost decided to put the trans am vents in the hood, but I may just switch to the thunderbird scoops instead. I'm not putting a spolier on the rear deck. So where did you get the rear side scoops from?

what a difference a set of wheels can make. makes the car look like it changed from a spungy turner, to a car that could do a u-turn and 65mph. very nice

i have fully adjustable coilovers, and just think on that pic i can STILL GO LOWER!!!
Excuse my naivete, but what's the difference between lowered and slammed?
I haven't decided my opinion on the rims yet . . . I'm not sure if they're quite aggressive-looking enough for my personal taste. But definitely a great upgrade from stock!
Can you post what they weigh?
Congrats - makes the whole car look better!
