Default Anyone here do their own body mods?

My niche car are Pontiac Fiero's. There aren't a lot or really any body mods to these cars so you're limited to your imagination and skill with fiberglass. Now a lot of people here like to just buy body kits or mods and slap them on, but I'm curious to see if anyone here does their own work? I'd love to see some of the talent.

Just an example

actually people here don't favor bodykits (generally). I dont think theyre all that bad on a well done Time attack/ magazine car.

but i can't actually see the 2nd pic, so i don know what your're trying to show me

edit: wow now tha i can see the 2nd pic, HOLY crap thats nice, do you do this professionally or just as a hobby?

The only thing I can see is where the front of the door meets the back of the fender.

Regardless, it took mad talent to produce a product like that.

Thats not mine, it was built by a 17 year old. I've done several body mods, (hoods, fascia's, fenders, etc) just nothing that involved (yet ), Let me fire up my other computer and get pics of what I've done. I was just using that as an example of what we (as in fiero owners) resort to doing. Again, thats NOT my project, I'm just part of a forum where that guy and a bunch of other talented people work on their fieros. I'm wondering if anyone on this forum does similiar, I love to appreciate the imagination and work that goes into these things.

More pics of that car btw;
