Door decals or not?

Currently my 1990 IROC does not have door decals...Should I add them or leave it like it is? What do you guys think?

Re: Door decals or not?

I like the door decals with the pinstripes. I say both or neither. ...as for which way to go, I think it depends on you. Looks more current without any decals, but my preference is to keep the nostalgic look. If I wanted a modern look, I'd buy a modern car!!!!

Re: Door decals or not?

I say it's an IROC and the IROC's were not subtle so you should go for it. It's an 80's iconic musclecar, wear the decals with pride

You have silver wheels so the decals should be silver too

Re: Door decals or not?

The lower striping looks good without the IROC-Z decal, however, the IROC-Z door decal looks ridiculous without the lower striping. I say do it all or nothing.

Re: Door decals or not?

Being of Sicilian descent, I feel I must have the billboards on the side of my car declaring I am an Italian Retard Out Cruising. Seriously, it's your car, but I prefer a stock looking car and I think they look cool with 'em. Stipe delete option makes it cool too if it's original. Your choice of course.

Re: Door decals or not?

Put 'em on... When I first got my IROC I really wanted to take mine off, but they really grow on you. If I wasn't looking at the car at the time, they seemed like they were about three feet tall, but in real life they look natural... a badge of honor of sorts. Keep it original!!!!
