Thanks! The wheels still need to be cleaned. I havent done that since the car has been sitting so long in the pain shop. But the wheels do clean up nice. The hood is a 2 3/4".
nice car man. i get mine back from the paint shop tomorrow so i know how you feel. and my rims are the same, but i am using WELDs now. but anyways.
i noticed something that didnt fit right in my mind, the IROC-Z door decal, its grey, you should buy a red one since the stripes in all. just an idea, and they do make red rocker ones and bumper ones also. just a thought!

Looks real sharp. I also agree about switching to red decals. I can't tell from your picture, but do you have the bowtie grille or the "camaro" grille? Anyhow, nice car.

Thanks for all the good replies. Im glad everyone likes it. The grille is the "camaro" one. I painted the letters red to match. Also regarding the red decals: I was going to do that originally but i just started running out of money. If i were to change to red decalse i would have to get rocker panel emblems and rear bumper emblems to match. Im still considering it though.
WOW..........i didnt think that red on white would look so good. i too have a white 87 iroc (the screen name is my brothers)and was debating on weather to get it repainted black or blue....but hell how ill just keep it white but i am thinking about blue stripes??!! again nice car and how bout some pics of the rear??
how much did it cost you for everything? and where did you get it done at?

hey,
I went to your webpage to see your other pics, but somehow they did not show(some of them). I was wondering if the racing stripes are all the way to the back end of the car or did you just get the hood painted with the stripes? thanks
