What hard to find items would you like for your fiero List wish list or answer others. I would like to see what others are looking for or what you would like to see available it may generate someone with the skills to make them or you may know a part that will do job etc. I have listed 12 Items modifications that i have my eyes out for.

1) (Wide body badge) no such animal as far as i know. prefer signature style text
2) (Gate shifter plate) as seen on replica ferrari I have designed one that will work do a search just not made.
3) (Jap style wing mounts) high rise stands. Wings everythere JDM etc
4) (Turnbuckles) to reinforce spoilers seen on splitters and racing lips. Not sure what to call this hardware
5) (Smoother shaved moulding) A flush moulding for doors fenders etc first ribbed then smoothed what about shaved?
6) (Pontiac wheel decals) 60mm seems to be impossible to find the arrows. Not after flat style but button raised.
7) (Roof scoops) MR2 over quarter window roof scoops. Not Toms style or fiero style.
8) (Roof wings) Roof wings as seen on hatchbacks What other roofs are as wide as a fiero? eg golf , starlet, mr2
9) (Strut tower mounts) that actually look good fierowarehouse fierostore only surely there is a DIYkit universal
10) (Splitter) Splitter style racing lip to fit to front of GT nose. Similar to norms etc but with a splitter not just a lower lip.
11)(Grills) to suit GT nose and stage II scoops billet or black plastic.
12) (Turnkey taillight mod) including led corvette or nissan gtr tail lamps. All are DIY you get mould only.

yeah..i looked and looked for some stage II scoops and finally found a set on ebay that was unused.....payed out the a$$ for them since they were not being reproduced anymore......the very next week, there were 4 sets on ebay from the original manufacturer for less than what i paid for them ...just my luck....anyway, i got them none the less.....now if i could just find time to install them

edit to add: I would also like a set of dietmar rocker panels

Mr. Mike's leather door pockets. - Preferably gray or black with the Fiero logo embroidered on it. He absolutely refuses to make them anymore. It is the most glaring thing missing from my interior.

How about a set of Chromadora wheels (options for an 88 Mera). Even singles would be OK if a set was not available.

I want wheel spinners to suit aftermarket wheels no not the jap type check out these corvette camaro ones above. very nice.......cheap.

Anyone know of these to suit 55 mm hole. 2 inch 3/16 aftermarket alloy wheel sizes. Or even to fit fiero 50mm although i think they could be almost fitted to stock fiero wheels the lug nut i believe will be in the road.

Looking for 60mm fiero wheel decals x 4 or pontiac decals ideally wanting a raised alloy style logo with silver or black background rather than flat decal. I just bought some gmc style ones for $7 including delivery raised style i will likely buy some corvette ones when i see them cheap. I can always find cheap bmw raised decals i never thought the pontiac was in such few numbers what is with the lack of pontiac logo accessories and after market parts. I remember when i was in California i thought i saw a million pontiac transams in particular but looking on ebay for pontiac arrows and fiero logos or anything to pass on a fiero there is always only a handful.

I would like someone that has a set of the factory soft fitted luggage to post some pictures and measurements of the bags. Maybe we could come up with suitable replacments and have Fiero fabric patches sewn on them.

I'm interested in some billet style wing stands.
I've tried to find some sold without wing in pairs to alter but looks easier to buy a 99$ wing for the stands maybe.
I don't necessarily want bigger/taller,just an option.

For the turnbuckles mentioned above in the first post,check tractor supply store.
They have turnbuckles of all size's,i've used them for mocking up lift height on a custom lawnmower among other things.

Well this is best i have seen but what i actually had in mind was.......
The strut rings for a FWD car with same diameter and an adjustable bar that could be cut shorter if needed with a tensioner to tighten it. I am just surprised that one wasn't available even if it required welding up.

OR a quality cheap one that has been modified for use in the fiero. EG a nissan skyline chopped down now don't go and buy a skyline one because you heard me mention it i wouldn't even know if the struts are close it was just a car to use as an example but perhaps you have another car you have bought one for i am just wondering if it crossed your mind to see how close it was to fitting on your fiero..

Are you wanting an adjustable one? If so, this is the next project that will be worked on. Basicly one with threaded ends that can be tightened or loosened.

Well that wass close to what i am looking for but those caps are useless to me as are too small if it is going to be an actual cap it has to suit after market wheels. Otherwise a flat disc of 55-60mm is ideally what i am seeking to stick to the cap they wouldn't cover let alone stay in..
