Good looking car.

What kind of headlights are those? Are they modified, or is it just the pic?

WOW! That is one hot Camaro! The rims look great, the paint looks great, the tails look great, everything... and I love the look of t-tops! Those are monte carlo headlights, right? the whole package is really smooth looking.

I don't mind the t-tops, my first IROC was a t-top car. They are very fun. I do however have to be the first to disagree on the wheels. Just not a big fan of them. All around though, very sharp ride. I like the sig too.

Your car has a nice combo of different year GM parts. Gotta have the ttops, just about the only reason to own a 3rd gen.
I dig the paint, what is the brand and name?

The headlights are actually off of a 90 celebrity. Yeah I used niteshades spray tint on the tail lights side markers and front driving lights and it kind of has a flat finish too it. I need to clear coat them so they are a shiney as the rest of the car. Thanks for all the positive input guys....

ALSO.....Do you guys think I should keep the loovered hood or change it to the blisters????? I want an SS hood however my new engine needs to come before a new hood. Remember the car is an 87 so the loovers on the hood are basically the only way from the outside to tell its an actual IROC.....

LOVE the maro!!! Very clean. That paint is great. Yeah imo you need a new hood.. I would go with a cowl or the SS style. Either one would look sweet on there! Those rims do look good on your car. Dont listen to other people, t-tops are the way to go

Kammi 10 - Yes all three windows are 5%

84riceeater - Yes its a 2" drop and the tire are 225/50r16 on the fronts and 245/50r16 on the back....... That was basically the widest tires for the back I could get in a 50 or lower series on a 16" rim

It is a sharp looking car, and by the way I used to live in Vernon B.C., I worked at Cloud 9 (Boomers) as a D.J. and lived on Tronson rd. back in 1995-1997, also worked in Kelowna (I loved the summers), Damn I miss that place.

Hey sinnister....where do you live now?...Yes the Okanagan Valley is the best place to live aside from some of the roads here are a little rough to drive on with lowered cars.

I hope the guy I bought my car off of didnt use a pt cruiser color. But I havnt seen any other cars with that color yet. Its a mix between cinnamon/candy apple and maroon. Its a cool color.
