definately go with some nice rims. and go with a Z28 grille. it is really easy to install and looks great. and dont go chrome. it looks out of place on our cars. makes them look ghetto. sorry if i have offended anyone but IMO. and go with the sleeper approach. you probably have a 3.1V6 or even the 5.0L TBI. which both are nice but havent got any real racing power. but dont get me wrong(i wish i could get my hands on a 91-92 V6 car with a 5spd.) oh i would have fun. and PLEASE DONT PUT UGLY RACING STRIPES if you do do it, make them look decent. and do something with the interior since you will spend almost all your time inside with the ladies.

oh and give it one h*ll of a good wax job. no offense but it always helps.

Hey I got the same set up as you and I did soem small things to it. Tail light covers are a MUST. Iroc Grill and Fog lights spruce up the front. I would say if you can get a nice set of Crome rims go for it. Some rims look Ghetto but some like that PIC at the bottom look damn good. Post the pics when you get done....love to get some more ideas for my whip :0).

I got blacked out windows with a nice ram air hood from Cervini's and a IROC spoiler from Cervini's, gives the car a very aggressive stance and looks really mean... good luck *** note, when taking off factory spoiler, spot welding and repainting is needed***

Hey Adam,
Might i suggest adding a rear spoiler( u know the ones used on 91'-92' Z28's). I bought mine from jeggs for $180.00,there called the high rise Z28 spoiler. I know the customer service sux but after u get the spoiler its all worth it. Not only do they look good, they fit as if it were from the factory. Trust me i have a 92' camaro RS thats going through a makeover.
