go to forum at the top and then click where ever you think it should go. after that the top left under the home button click post new thread or post.

Well just ask yourself if you could make a living selling festiva parts.... I'm sure roger of FMS asked himself the same thing and simply gave up

[jaketlong11]

that's it he couldn't do it on the side? well this sucks

[Damkid]

FMS has been done for a while now, I don't know the actual reason for it folding, but my guess is that he wasn't making money and lost interest

But nonamekid started up an FMS replacement.... The festiva store..... Check it out

No

FMS is long gone

[jaketlong11]

do they still have any of the tooling, designs or molds?

[Powerstiva]

I doubt it, he closed up shop somewhere around 4 years ago from what I know. Possibly even longer

[nonamekid]

FMS sold all of the molds for all the fiberglass parts. He also clearanced out his inventory and got rid of everything he had.

Demand is weak for festiva parts. Most owners buy them to save money, not to turn them into race cars or show cars.

FMS stopped producing parts in 2001, tried for years to sell the molds.

They finally sold in 2007. A member here (who can speak up at his own will) has all the molds including the hatch.

I am currently making side skirts, and front bumpers.

I've seen the market, every body wants, until it's time to spend $.

I totally agree with Ben, most (90%) buy these cars because they are inexpensive and get great mileage.

I was going to buy a set but then realized I have to rebuild my rear end and my car doesn't have the same body as any other 2 door anymore. and my car is a rust bucket after I get a rust free car I will be buying a kit off of someone.
