Sup fellas, wanted to introduce yall to a little project that I've been working on for about two years now. About two years ago I was looking into a project car to mess with. Couldn't really decide what car to really plug myself into that would be a fun project until I started thinking about my first car I had back in high school so I picked up a 5 speed 1987 Pontiac Fiero GT. Back in my days I had previously had own three of these cars at one point but sold them all. Here are two of them.
Luckily I scored a nice deal on this one from Las Vegas and the guy was kind enough to drive the car to Texas to which I paid for all the petro stops, meals and paid for his flight back to Vegas. Nice dude and much props for him for doing that. So I inspected the car and as he stated it was well maintained and had the upgraded 3.4 liter from the stock 2.8 liter motor. The car needed some cosmetic work so I updated the sail window panels, taillights, corner lights and did a full tune up.
During the winter of 2014 I wanted to work on updating the bulky headlights and do something different with the pop ups so I customized some light bars and it came out pretty dope. Also, added a chin spoiler for a lower aggressive look.
Last year during the summer I wanted to do a fender kit and build some 18" BBS style 5wheels to do a wide setup so I bought some standard fender flares and did some test fits. After staring at the pictures for a long time I started not liking the flow of it so I scratch that set up along with the wheel set up. So another plan was do buy a wide body kit for the Fiero but the kit was very pricey for my budget. The yellow Fiero is what the wide body kit looks like.
So right around Fall of last year I picked up a cheap set of SSR Vienna Kreis. I had these rebuilt to 19's with brush faces with polished lips and gold hardware. Slap on some Pirelli P-Zero Nero tires and did some test fitting for clearance issue and sure enough it was rubbing. Also, wanted to see what my Veilside Andrews would look like for the heck of it.
So with the wheels built I started thinking of what fender kit to go with. I finally found a kit that I felt flow well with the lines of the Fiero and so I ordered the kit and started modifying kit as soon as I got it. A lot of test fitting and cutting was involved to make it look right on the car and to my surprise it came out how I vision it. Super stoke how it came out. Pretty proud of myself for doing all the work on my car. Still going to mess and tweak some things with the kit to have everything flow well which I think it does already but there are some things that bother me. Other plans I have is to install air ride systems and work on the interior. Soon I will update the motor to either a supercharge or turbo set up not sure but eventually I will get there slowly but surely.
You can follow me on Instagram (Tony.GQ.Money) or you can find everything done on the Fiero with hashtag ProjectFZero. I also got some other builds that I'm working on as well. Check me out. Thanks Fellas!
