Looking For 3rd Gen Firebird IMSA Widebody Kit

I’ve absolutely fallen in love with the way this looks. I saw it in a picture from an old magazine and from what you can read it looks like you were able to buy it at one point but I’m not sure from where. Any ideas or information about how/where I could get this exact kit would be extremely helpful!

You would have to get someone to fabricate it.

It wont be cheap, I am guessing $2k at least.

Re: Looking For 3rd Gen Firebird IMSA Widebody Kit

Some quick research shows that they were made by DGM (as referenced in the article), which has been sold a couple of times now and probably had all of their assets split up. The Fiero also had a widebody kit made by DGM, and those molds were up for sale on fiero.nl last year, but no mention of the old Firebird models, so they're most likely lost. You're probably going to have to find someone who has a set and give them significant money, or just find as many pictures as you can and see if you can find someone to build them as a one-off for you.

The ISMA hood is available from Fiber Concepts in Warminster, PA.
Firebird (fiberpartsconcepts.com)

There's no mention of the body kit, but you could phone and ask. I doubt anything is still out there, but he has the hood mold, so who knows?
