I'm building on a NAERC tubular steel chassis; don't know for sure how the headroom compares to the Fiero.

If you are using a fiero chassis , use the fiero seats with murci headrests  as they sit low
The aftermarket seat will not sit low

PS:  are those aftermarket seats, similar to the ones always for sale on ebay?  Those look like they would work, reupholstered in leather, but I'm concerned about head clearance.  I tried to use seats from a Mercedes, the seat cushion probably 6"-8" off the floor, and my head stuck above the top of the car several inches - and I'm only 5'-11".  Need something that almost puts you sitting right on the floor pan.

I'd be interested in door cards for a Diablo roadster build if you do those.  Also, how about covers for the A pillars and the piece across the top of the windshield?

Like Murci-Me said, when I built my G28 I had screws everywhere, 4 holding the panel itself and another 4 to 6 holding the armrest and other parts on.

I did not do a Murci but here is what I did to mount the inner door panels.
Across the top edge I bonded and riveted on three hooks that align and slide into slots I cut on the door. Simply slide the panel down into the slots and thats it. I used foam tape to make them tight and not rattle. That takes care of the top without any screws showing. 
If you use the area in the speaker hole to install a bracket you can take care of the front door panel mount without any screws showing.
I put two furniture bolts in the door pull to mount it and this takes care of the rear door panel mount.
You can also put a single bolt on the bottom edge of the panel, this way when the door is closed no screws are showing.

My Diablo panel mounted;

Did you ever figure out your attachment points? Which door cards do you have? I've seen people mount them in several ways, but there is always a few screws showing with any of these cards pictured. On the OEM card there are several places to attach the cards without the screws showing, but good luck getting those cards to fit the G28 door and still look decent. The way to do it is to make the mounting features of the OEM cards on your G28 cards.

3 members have cut them, who? I saw jets cut them down but he even said they're still far from fitting.

How much are the door panels? I need a set.
