Bandwidth issues... our PiP pictures are getting killed because of all the viral-visitors we are having due to the "12 year old works on fiero" thread.

Nice work. Can you get a shot of it from the back, so I can put them on my website?

Sure, I am very proud of the bottom side. I spent twice as much time on the bottom than the top, and no one ever see's it. I'll add some shots this weekend.

Nobody here is interested in your sex life!

I have always loved your car. Very tastefully done.

Actually I was talking about a photo of the vent from the back to show the opening, not the bottom.
EDIT: Bottom looks great, though. It does take a lot of time to finish one like that.

Forgive my ignorance. Is this for looks only or does a Fiero cool better ? Any other benefits ?
I assume this allows air which flows through the radiator to escape, helping cooling. Where does that air go with a stock hood set up ?

That air is just creating a bunch of lift at speed while it tries to escape the front compartment. (ie. headlight doors popping up at speed)

I believe that is the main benefit of these scoops. They allow that air to escape much easier, keeping the nose planted a little firmer. I'm sure the cooling factor is improved as well with the extra flow.
