I've always found it strange how front-end shots always make these car appear like they're hovering a good 3 feet :P

I'm amazed at how CLEAN your car is.
No dents.
No obvious scrapes.
Everything under the hood looks brand new . . .

good stuff but i got one question. Your front turn signals did they come stock amber? I still have the stock ones from my 88 IROC vert and they were the clear ones. Was it just a European export thing?

Thanks, your right, there really aren't many IROC's over here, mostly beaten down V6 firebirds for some strange reason. The majority of 3gens here are really a pitty. I could post some pics that would make you guys cry ! Its funny how 3gens are being considered ****** cars in the states.... everyone who has that opinion should see a few of those cars over here first.... anyway, I'm glad to have my car and will do everything to keep it in that shape

I've also been wondering about the front parking lights, I never found out if the original owner put them in or if they were already on the car when it was new. The only thing I know for sure is that the previous owner ordered the car through a dealer in CA, which means that the car has US specs. I was thinking about replacing them with the stock clear ones. The only problem is that I can't make up my mind which ones I like better

Thanks, I would really like to help you with the part # on the lights, but I haven't got a clue. I'm trying to get new ones myself since they have very small cracks in them but it seems like no one knows anything about them... the only ones I can find are the clear ones

Honestly I never even knew they made amber ones for our cars, they made them for the SC's in amber but those won't fit IROCs. Thats just weird.

As for my spoiler it looks exactly like yours except I don't have those two bolts on either side of the spoiler, what exactly are those? I'd post a picture of mine but I'm currently at college and most of my pics are saved on my computer at home. Have those bolt like things always been there?
