That's a pretty good deal, too bad it's hard to ever find anything on their site.

Re: junked the RS grille and got me and IROC

$70 seems a bit much, I been out of it for a while now but a few years back I paid $40 for mine right from the Chevy dealer.

If you paid $40 for one it must have been a long time ago. GM list price on them is $89.75 and our $70 price is even below wholesale.

Thanks for noticing!!!!

The IROC grills have been one of our biggest sellers in the last few weeks so I guess other people have had the same idea as you.

Why would you order it when you can get it from your dealer for 74$ wouldn't shipping be more and take longer?

Re: junked the RS grille and got me and IROC

I'd have to grab the invoice but it was probably 2005/6 that I paid that for my grille. If GM list on it has risen that much since then It sounds like I bought at the right time.

Re: junked the RS grille and got me and IROC

Just courious, If you buy the Iroc grill, do you set up fog lights?
Do you have to rewire the harness for the fog lights?
I really like the Iroc look, But have a hard time sticking Iroc parts on my RS.
I have owned a Iroc and don't feel I can sport something thats not for real.
just my own oppion, but who know, I have thought about it!

This. i want my RS to be an IROC, I'm almost done with my project replica except the hood, and it will be exactly like factory, except the wheels, which i have if i really wanted that true IROC-Z look". I don't want my car to be the average looking ragged out RS, I want the best package for my car and you wont know the difference without looking at the rpo codes .
Pictures to come when finished, I plan on keeping my IROC for life if you think i'm going to sell a faked IROC-Z btw .

Re: junked the RS grille and got me and IROC

I have an iroc grill and fog lights, and blacked out buckets, but I have a problem about doing things like IROC badges, IROC hoods, and wheels. that's just me though, and I don't judge others for the decisions they make

Re: junked the RS grille and got me and IROC

As far as I know all of the IROC/RS/Z28 grilles from 85-92 interchange because all the Camaro bumper covers (85-92), except berlinettas and sport coupes, are the same.

Re: junked the RS grille and got me and IROC

I did not have the mounting holes for the grille. I took the clips where the RS grille mounted and drilled holes and put them in the proper spot for the bowtie grille. I then painted the grille area black before I put the grille in because thier are two pieces of flat that are not covered by the grille. pretty easy. you should not have any problems.
