That's a pretty nice looker! How much did it run ya? What all had to be done before the paint job (prep work, etc)? Just asking because my 88 will probably see a paint gun or two later on this year. I have some of that crappy GM paint clearcoat delamination.

$6000 for the whole job.... COmpletly taking the old paint off, sanding it down, getting out dents and dings, then repaintying it with a few clear coats.

The paint looks great....did the body shop put the decals back on? One problem making it noticable is the 5.7 TPI decal on the rear bumper. It is supposed to be place like an inch or so from the edge, not right against the edge.....if you wanna redo it, I can look up the exact placement specs for ya and let you know. I'm just really **** about stuff like that though.

Hey, first, id just like to say i think it looks excellent.... Second, im just curious if that is the factory spoiler from the IROC, or if that was an aftermarket. It looks slightly bigger, but im certain its a combo of my imagination and that its freshly painted and reflecting alot.

I only ask because i have a wraparound on my firebird (you can see at the site in my sig) but its starting to crack slightly, and im thinking of going with the Iroc spoiler...

Yes its stock on all 1991/92 Z28's, the iroc name was dropped in 1990, and the V8 Fbody was called the Z28 again....

p.s. I like your aftermarket body kit, someone actually gave me the link to your site not to long ago, to see if i knew where he could get a body kit like yours!

IROC spoiler ? Are you on crack or something ? That's a FACTORY 91-92 Z28 spoiler. Nothing aftermarket or "IROC" about it.
