I tried to contact Ron (cool custom concepts or fancycar.com) before I started my conversion. Never did hear back from him. The hood is for a modified 355 body kit they used to sell (they may still sell them).

any thoughts on these? they're bike lights, would they be legal on a Fiero? i have a vision for yet another headlight design but i need particularly small lights unless i can get a single "small-ish" light with high and low beams in one unit.

Seriously, I agree - I removed the fog lights and put slim LEDs under there. Looks a ton better.

I am currently workin on it I have the hinges figured out so far and have the gas struts figured out but I am still workin on the latch and how I will transition it to the front of the door, if u look at all the 350 z's and this car in this thread they use a pretty weak system and gut their doors for weight reduction plus if you look at them in detail the hinge is the only thing holding the front of door in while its down and latches via the original striker I plan on using a system more like the tailgate latch system of a pickup truck to hold the front of the door into position, after the chop is done on my car I will then be starting working this out more also if you are going to try it I have also figired out the front of the door will have to be cut out 2 inches wide and then filled in with a 2 inch wide piece of flat stock 3/8 or 1/4 thick welded in to stiffen it up and to give the gas strut a solid place to push off on also the triangle piece in front of the window glass will be made of flat stock and have the hinge built into it, this will swing the door out up and away putting the hinge their. When I get around to doing it I will do a build thread.

As pontiackid suggested, that is indeed a Fiero. It's a one-off built entirely for show though, afaik, and is located in Canada.
There's not really much info on it around.

I remember seeing that pic in a thread on here a few years ago. Probably in archives, but I have no idea what it was called.

EDIT: Quick search in the forum and I found another thread, with a link to this: http://www.coolcustomcars.com/concept.html

I like the Fiero Pop ups or any that are hidden. If they pop up or down as long as they are not seen big headlights just are not good looking at all on a car to me. They are nice on females.

Unlike those of stock 3rd-generation Corvettes (1968-1982) and all stock Fieros, which "pop up," I'd describe those of 4th-generation Corvettes (1984-1996), as headlights which "flip up" rather than pop up.

I imagine there are others, but those 4th-generation Corvette headlamps just happened to be the first to pop up flip up into my head.
