I have a fastback and an 87-88' front bumper. Just got me thinking, "Wonder what that would look like?" Wierd, or cool? Anyone ever done that? Got any links or pictures?

I personally like the look myself. Below is a Fastback with a Formula nose, then an 84 with a Fastback rear clip.

The fastback has never done it for me until now. Losing the snow plough of a front end has really improved it for me.

Sure looks like it.

Here are a couple of pics I have in my collection of what I refer to as FastWedges

It's not done yet,but my 87 GT has a Formula front end.I'm a little concerned about the front getting light at high speed(only on the track).

A hood vent will fix that better than a GT front end.

that's a look i like myself. if i ever come upwith a 2nd fastback it's something i'm gonna consider for it. i also experimented with a formula front and gt rear with side ground effects to match both on my convertible (kinda cut them to get wider as they go back) and it's something i wouldn't mind trying on a fastback too.

That's something I've thought about.
Maybe using nothing on the sides but "spats" like the 70s T/A used. The trick is getting them to line up with, and look correct with, the GT rear.
Want to do that on my red notchie.

Thanks guys! That is exaclty what I was looking for! Sweet looking Fieros! I really like the Formula style bumpers with the fasback quarters. Looks very agressive.

here's where i tried it. my pics (when i'm even able to do it) are always so blurry, but i really like how it came out. i used a set of denny patton rocker scoops (similar to irm/archie scoops, but not as wide. i don't think they're made any more either) and trimmed the front down to match the formula front facia.
