The 355 style taillights...
mine is an older two piece panel from Pisafierohq.com I like the new one piece panel from Kahines.com
also Doug from Fierowarehouse.com has one piece panel(not shown on website), email him for info.

I still have a preference to the Monza tips if you are going to run 2 dual tips.  They have a mini muffler inside them to get rid of the rasp out of the exhaust so you only hear the good tones.  Kinda makes a 2.8 sound exotic in my opinion.

Totally in love with this car !

Hopefully my v-8 Archie choptop will look half as good when i am finished !

Jon what size wing stands are those ? I have 5" ones from the fiero warehouse, and plan to extend the wing tips by 1 or 2".

Going to also be doing the closed mouth chin spoiler, and hopefully the new v-8 archie widebody.

Wish i had your skills,..would save me a ton of $ !!

Again keep up the good work !

Hi exoticse:

Archie's wide body will look great too! I wish my car was at Archie's for a
transplant. I got the 5" wingstands from the fiero warehouse to and I
fibreglassed flares onto them (the fiero warehouse is now selling flared
wingstands). I extended the wing tips 2" but decided to trim off about
1/2"-3/4".

Yeah, so far the cost has been very little, also....." it's fun doing it" !

So, are you going to keep the wing instead of going with the spoiler trend   
like TroyBoy and MadCurly? Actually, I was thinking of going that way
too, I would tweak it more to be different.

Some fun shots...
Good comparison between "stock" and "chopped"








The gold Fiero almost looks like a sedan next to the chopper?

Wow, that is a major difference. The car looks amazing as always. Can't wait to see it in person again. When is the next tech session?
I wanna go fast.
