Update: Today I dropped off parts (from Marcel) to Clynt's shop and shot some pics...



Front fascia roughed in and Clynt is still tweaking it.










Mr. Mike's seats





Subs behind seats and it sounds great (better than Car-2-Lo's)

Oh my God, that nose is dead sexy. Anyone else think it looks Ferrari'esk. I want a step by step on how he did that. Those seats are really nice too. Are they Mr. Mikes?

Very sweet looking car. I was curious to what brand the wheels are.  Sort of look like BBS RS wheels but the center caps say otherwise. Thanks!

Those are definitely bright enough! Depending on whether they're the HID units or not, they're either the brightest or second brightest lights (with the best pattern either way) that you can get on a Fiero. All you need is the four lights, plug adapters and a new headlight bucket. There's a dude in (I think) Germany that makes them. You can find his thread on Fiero.nl.

Those are my old "CSI WHEELS" back in '88 we wanted stock looking mags (with mesh).
Front 16"X7" rear 16X8" ( +35 offset)

Clynt has brought new life to them rear 16"X10"

Their not around anymore, I think Smurf (WCF club member) works for a wheel company
should know who manufactured the CSI WHEELS ?

That was a bit of history, any new info on these wheels, let us know.

well there;check out fieroking as its his idea,but i only used lites and wiring non of the abs parts .mounted lites in flat plexie and trimmed housing to fit stock bucket.total cost was the price of the lites,,as far as brightness there fine for me,i wanted the look more than the effect!!

as for the wheels,i think they are bbs but branded under another name. now that they have been widened the offset is different but the back space is the same.

Clynt's Panda Chopper...
Okay, just joking, it won't stay this way!

So finally went to visit Clynt's shop, he is still having fun tweaking here and there...








The wing went back on (he has two deck lids, one with wing and one without, so he can switch over anytime).
I like it better without or trim wing ends a bit (but, that's my taste only) What do you guys think?


Next, he's going to do something with the rear bumper and tweak it.

The nose is amazing.  I am sorry that when Clynt stopped by Lisa and I were racing out the door so we did not have time to chat.   Clynt if you are reading this, I am totally jealous, it looks awesome.  P.S. I tried to call you the morning after we saw you in Surrey, and it turns out I no longer have your number.   Drop me a line on my cell 604-807-2623 and let me know how things went.

Great job on the nose !

I agree with you Car-2-lo, IMO the wing tips are DEFINATLY toooo long and need some trimming, but otherwise the car looks great !


P.S. i might also lower the wing an inch or two.  :)
