Re: I need some help deciding PLEASE HELP
Stock will always be the easiest and cheapest color to repaint a car in because there are areas which probably wont need repainted, such as the door jambs, which are really a pain to paint.
That said, what about a nice yellow?! I dearly miss my yellow Iroc-z, and I'm not the only one who has fond memories of a yellow camaro!

WHATEVER you do KEEP the decals. If you dont then you look like every other camaro and nothing special. Granted ull have iroc wheels. KEEP THE DECALS let the car be known for what it really is

Re: I need some help deciding PLEASE HELP
yea there has always been somthing about racing stripes and irocs... Z28s its cool but not a fan on irocs i think the maroon with silver and black stripes would look good.

Re: I need some help deciding PLEASE HELP
its all in preference i guess but if i had just a Z28 id paint with stripes like the old school ones and just use heritage stripes from the 91-92 Z28s. I wanted to paint my yellow car black with red stripes. Look into the color Spice red metallic from the 2006 GTO its NICE

Re: I need some help deciding PLEASE HELP
i got several pics of irocs with stripes if you would like to see them but they look out of place. Id just stick with the solid color. Also make sure you paint the head light buckets black.

Re: I need some help deciding PLEASE HELP
I personally dont think that racing stripes gets anymore police attention compared to just a nice painted car. Cops could care less about racing stripes everything from camaros to hondas got them... Dime a dozen
