Photo chop shop is open

OK I know that the bumper is not right wil fix it if you want me to.

But check these out

Had to chop it

I think I like it.  The wing adds the right stuff.  Balances everything out. 

I've always thought the Fastbacks should be wingless and all Notchies should have them.  Or at the very least, much smaller wings on Fastbacks.

Oh, one more thing.  Can you make the wing the body color so it stands out a little more?  Then I think we have it.

I like the looks of the straight cut knotch with the
'black' wing.
Puts the 'emphasiss' on knotch for sure and makes the car
look nice and low and long! Tristan won't
like it though.

That's what we need, a Fiero Nomad.

Gawd I love these...

 

A slightly... ummm, different perspective...

 

And a newer approach...

Chevy Nomad concept recalls 1954 Nomad

Detroit, Michigan - With styling that harks back to the distinctive two-door 1954 Chevrolet Nomad, a 21st century Nomad concept was unveiled in Detroit today. Based on GM's new rear-wheel-drive Kappa platform, which also serves as the foundation for the Pontiac Solstice production model and Saturn Curve concept, the Nomad concept features a 250 horsepower turbocharged 2.2 litre Ecotec four cylinder engine with variable valve timing, independent front and rear suspensions, four passenger capability, a removeable rear roof panel, and a unique tailgate that includes a sliding tray that makes it easier to load cargo items.

Designed at GM's design centre in Great Britain and assembled with the help of renowned Italian coachbuilder Pininfarina, the Nomad concept features round headlamps mounted on gently curving fenders, a retro Corvette grille, a thick forward-sloping B-pillar and a blacked-out C-pillar, a lowered roofline which wraps around the rear of the vehicle, and seven vertical chrome strips on the tailgate.

"There is a simple, yet very expressive design to the Nomad," said Dale Brewer, lead exterior designer. "The face of the vehicle, along with the lights, the shape of the grille and the tailgate have Chevrolet heritage, but conveyed in a thoroughly modern way."

The interior's retro look includes a large, fan-shaped central gauge cluster with a 3-D look, an aluminum background and special instrument lighting. In front of the gauges is a large, classic-looking steering wheel that is covered in leather. The black leather-trimmed interior features blue Nubuck inserts, anodized blue aluminum gauges and blue lighting. Chevrolet "bowtie" insignias accent a metal band that runs the length of the dashboard - a styling cue on Chevrolet models of the 1950s that contributes to the interior's geometric theme.

For cargo-carrying convenience, flexible rear seating arrangements include a centre armrest that folds to store long items, such as skis, while each rear seatback folds to increase the Nomad's overall cargo space.

"The idea for a compact vehicle like this is more relevant now than ever," said Jose Gonzalez, lead interior designer. "As much as people crave a sporty, great looking vehicle, modern lifestyle interests demand functionality. The Nomad has both - an unmistakable character, like the SSR, and the utility of the upcoming HHR. Whether or not they can convey it in words, it's what everybody is looking for in a new vehicle."

Dang I have so many quick wit inapropriate things to say about that     "slightly ummm, differant perspective"     I wil give her my thumb way up, I MEAN! a thumbs up.   Nomads are sweet!

Had to post stock notchie stock wheel in a 20" !!! Wonder how many thousands of dollars that would cost?

As for custom rims, I'm sure they'd be expensive (There are companies you can talk to for it, such as Billet Specialties), but 20"s in genereal arn't too outlandishly priced, I've actually had my eye on 20" TSW's for a while now.

Thanks that is what I thought too when I was done all I could think was, HELL YAH!

That looks great , but there's always room for improvement.  

Can you move the side pillar back to where it would actually be (the front of the pillar in line with the back edge of the door)?

And perhaps remove the side scoop, gas cap and antenna which are all on the wrong sides.

Yeah, I'm picky.

Perhaps I'm too practical for my own good, but a Fiero Nomad would not be built with that pillar where it is now. Wouldn't work. Needs to be pushed back where it belongs.
