OK I am just reposting here to expand the topic for those who may not have seen the thread in the "mall" you can search under "Lotus Bumper" for picures: Ok This is Great news!!! I have had a discussion with the designers and will be meeting with them to have the kit which actually includes the 1) Esprit Front Bumper 2) SideSkirts 3) Louvers (somewhere over rear quarter windows on GT) and 5) Rear Spoiler. Their shop is 15 minutes from my brothers house and since I am in the area once a month I will take my car (can be searched in archives "FIERO UNVAILING" ) to test fit and inspect quality of product! We will take pictures for an over all view with white gel coat and also close ups to show lines and quality. We will also photo shop the body kit and paint match it same color of my car to show a "Finished Product"! I will be also discussing possibilities for a group buy to negotiate pricing and to get things into production. It would be ideal to begin a list of relevant questions to address when I meet with the designers. I will post when possible but am extremely busy and have no other information at this time. The one point I have at this time is that I will negotiate individual prices and package prices with single purchaser and group buys i.e) single bumper vs. group buy of multple bumpers i.e) single package purchase vs. group purchase of multiple packages= (1) Esprit Front Bumper 2) SideSkirts 3) Louvers (somewhere over rear quarter windows on GT) and 5) Rear Spoiler) I will be looking at market prices of similar 4/5 piece kits for the Fiero, MR2, Integra, etc. to gauge price points all suggestions will be helpful Thank you for your interest and patience. Multiple meetings set for week of Oct. 1-4

But you can find nice examples of the older Esprit with 4 cyl turbo for less than $10,000. There close to 180 mph cars as is. I had a guy in one of my car clubs that bought one, just had to paint it and only paid $6,000. Ran perfect. There one reason I like the bumper pad nose Fieros in the first place. Love Esprit. Newer v8 ones.....not so much.
