89 iroc and with 91z28 gfx???

ok guys what do you think im debating on if i want to keep my iroc looking like an 89, or update it alittle bit with either just the hood blisters, or i want to do blisters and the bottom gfx from 91-92 and no hirise, or go all the way,

i want to keep it looking like an 89 that way people dont think its a fake, but how ever i do like the look of the newer gfx what should i do?? keep it for history sake/ or just dont care who calls on my iroc

I was in those shoes at one point, but I figured, ah who cares, I still have the rpo tag.

I'm in the same situation currently. Here's my take on it:

Its still an IROC-Z so I can still use the badging and its just now "customized"

In retrospect, I guess I could've gotten a base V6 model and done all my mods but then I would just say "I drive a Camaro" instead of "I drive an IROC-Z".

It's your car do what you want, who cares what any one else thinks. If you want the newer ground effects and hood blisters put em on!
