Gold or Red?
Just got the IROC(89 5.7 t top) repainted stock bright red. I will order the Gold decals from Pheonix Graphics. The car will have tan interior. I ordered the emblems (front GFX and rear bumper) from ebay in gold. Then I noticed the stock ones were like orange and black. I started thinking that this would be too much gold. So I ordered the red emblems also as they were closer to the original orange color. When I took them(red) to install them my bodyman liked the gold an I was set on red. Needless to say I installed niether. Any thoughts or opinions? I posted on IROCZone but got no response. Any opinoins or pics? Thanks!

I've seen gold on red and it looks killer. Go with the gold it won't be too much. Just right.

With the Bright red paint and beechwood interior, gold is the correct color, not the orange/red that "probably" came with the plain boring grey interior!
Ask me how I know.

Hey, is your car a factory 88-90 Bright red Iroc with gold/beechwood?
Not many of those around!!! There's one on the 1989 Camaro Brochure, mine, one other confirmed hardtop, and one vert that I've found over the past 10 years. Surely there are more, but not that I have found.
