that would deffinatley be different...i'de have to see it on a thirdgen though

 

It would be different but without actually seeing it, I'd say that it wouldn't look that great. Just because it may not follow the lines of the car. Considering 1st gens were a little more "rounded" were the 3rd gens are more symetrical(I think?). After the photoshop though we'll have to see.

 

maybe with 91-92 style ground effects, it may look pretty good and complement the aero scoops on the side skirts and nose.

 

i was looking at my car today and i find one "empty" spot...the panel right being the door windows...i think that could be used for some sorta mod...i just dont knwo what.

 

I'll do a photoshop tonight when I get back from work. Unless someone does it before then.

 

I saw a 2nd gen at a show with that done to it. It looked a little out of place, but not too bad. However, on the straight lines of the 3rd gen - I don't know...
I have some pics of the 2nd gen somewhere. I can find them if you'd like to see.

thanks in advance for any photo shopping i think it would look good but not fit in if you put the chrome trim in i jus was gonna use the part outa a replacment quater for a 69 jus so the gills are there the chrome trim would definitly look outa place

 

Well pretty limited room there on thirdgen. Im curious as to how that would look.

 

I don't think it would look good because the first gens have a bit more space there. I think if you put them on a third gen, they would look kinda 'shoved' in there. Very interesting idea though.

 

Those 'gills' you are talking about aren't painted on... they are stamped into the 1/4 panel.

I think Hockey Stick stripes would look cooler.

 

Im not so sure about that.......they look really weird on our cars. IMO

 

Yup, doubt youd have enough space to intergrate it properly.

 

Def. wouldnt look good, Chrome vents would not look good on a thirdgen and it'd prob. give it a trashy look. You would have to work fiberglass vents like the rear of Saleen's out back.

 

yea i kno there not painted on i plan on weldin a section in and NOT using the chrome grilles anyone got a photoshop goin yet?

 

Hey KonArtist, you got any more pictures of that IROC u posted? Id love to see some shots of that side exhaust or if you have any info on it that would be sweet.

 

sorta like this?

On my 89 LOL

 

is that just the trim put on there? or did u actually put a peice of an 69 quater in there?

 

LOL i just copied an pasted the section on that 69 onto my car. The angle is a bit off but you get sorta an idea.
As far as the fender goes, it should look alright.

 

maybe on a car w/o the bumpstrips....with them it looks too crowded...
You would have gfx then fin then bumpstrip looks like the gap may only be an inch bw them...

flop it and try to shop it in behind the wheel well instead...
hmmm then again it might be too tall

 

Thats cuz those are for a 4thgen... if you got a set for a 3rdgen, then it would follow the 3rdgen's body lines right and look really good.
