21st ann. package?

im just lookin for some feedback on my ideas...
i have a 88 iroc...i was thinking about getting a ram air II hood, paint it a brighter white and put on "21st ann" orange stripes...i think this would look cool but i also want to keep the classic iroc appearance...would u change it or keep it the original iroc?

21st Anniversary? I think it sounds stupid cause nothing ever has a "21st" Anniversary.

It wouldn't look cool. If I saw it, I'd think to myself "Its only an 88 IROC, nothing that special "

But if you want it, go for it. Its your car, not mine.

Everything that you've planned out for your camaro sounds good except the 21st ann stuff? Why don't you just put 25th ann stripes on it and leave the badging off?


I agree with metillicamaroRS, if i saw an 88 with 21st anniversary badges i'd be like WTF????

I would leave the IROC the way it is. It is a beautiful car & i say "There is nothing better then the orginal".

I have to agree. The 21st thing is a NO-NO!

As for the color combo....FANTASTIC, but I'm a fan of a stock look.

If I were to paint though......it'd be white with the orange stripes.

Dude get rid of that bra and you should be good to go! i dont even care if the front nose is scrapped to hell, a ****ed up looking front end will look way better than those damn bras...

21st Anny? Are you on crack?

Id leave the car the way it is, minus the bra...

I don't think the bra looks bad on the white car. also I think if you have a f*ucked up nose then a bra is a must!!!!
also the beer thing is not a bad Idea, just a small little vinal decal of something just sh(ts and giggles.

IROCZ88x Don't get us wrong we're not saying your car is not nice, or is not special. 25th anniversary stripes would be cool, but no 21 stuff

I believe it is a nice looking car, I'm sorry but if it was labeled as a 21st anniversary, i'd look twice and shake my head.
