bodyside molding question ?
i know the 85 iroc got the black bodyside molding and the 86 iroc got it the color of the car but for 87 i have seen both some with black and some the same color of the car ..
so my question is in 87 could you get a black bodyside molding on a red iroc ?

I Think The LT,Z28,IROC-Z Were Color-Keyed,Black Was Only On The Sport Coupe In 1987.

I am sure the dealer would install OEM or aftermarket in whatever color the owner wanted to make a sale.

Black was on 85 only, unless the car was black. Many cars came without moldings and the dealers installed some for the customer. Many times, dealers would install what they had in stock rather than ordering the correct color. It was very possible to have two year old black moldings in inventory than it would be to have the specific color required.

1986 shows the body side moldings as black on the sport coupe and color coordinated to match the car on all other models. 1987 is the same. The Sport Coupe black moldings. All other models got color matched.
I'm not sure if the pictures from the order books above are incorrect or not. My copies all show that B84 is molding, body side, but lists black for the Sport Coupe and all others are color-keyed.

I can tell by looking at the ones listed on the car above that they are aftermarket. Notice how far forward they are installed on the front fender? Also, the factory set has about an inch between the trailing door edge and the leading rear 1/4 edge.

The 1986 product book I have does note what you have stated (black on Sport and color-keyed on all others). But the 1987 product book I have does not have that same definition. Instead, the order guide printed 4/28/86, which is older than the print you'll find on GM's Heritage center, spells out something different (that B84 is black on Level 2 IROC). It doesn't seem correct despite being from GM.
