Ya. I was looking at those. The stripes throw me off on the look. But the pics of just colored grd efx are nice

From '82-'87, all Z28's (and low option IROC's) had differently colored GFX than the body. To name a few factory combos, black cars had silver GFX with silver, red, or blue stripes, white cars had tan GFX and stripes or silver GFX with red stripes, and brown/metallic orange cars had gold GFX and stripes.

Re: two tone paint job pics
I gotta say. I like that black and gold. Could somebody Photoshop the gold to red and put some res accents on the wheels?

It doesn't look as bad as I thought it would, but red pin stripes accenting the GFX would look great.

Re: two tone paint job pics
That looks awesome. Thanks a lot. Can I talk you into redening the hood louvers and spoiler also. Mine car is satin black, but that gives me a good idea of how it will look. I have same wheels also

Re: two tone paint job pics
This is my brothers 85 Z28, his name on here is 85maroZ28. Anyways pictures don't do the car any justice, some people don't like the blue ground effects but it looks a lot better in person. He also plans on getting a new hood before long, he really wants an SS hood but may go with a stock Z hood until he can afford an SS hood. I think an SS hood would look perfect on this car...

This was my old car (The black with gold trim) But it also has another nice two-tone Camaro in it that I found around town one day. I miss that car so much

Re: two tone paint job pics
So to the nice fella who did the Photoshop for me. I just got some new doors and a high rise spoiler along with aero grd efx. Which in my mind justifies a new paint job. With that being said, could I get you to Photoshop one for me admiral blue with white where you previously did red. I thi.k that eod be sick.

Re: two tone paint job pics
I think it looks killer. I don't think the spoiler and hood louvers would look good in white, but I can do that if you want.
Not my best, I'm not good at adding white to a picture.

Re: two tone paint job pics
The RUINER is done!


Refinishing the Z28 wheels was a trip! Don't want to have to do that again, LOL!
the center chrome push through bullets I got didn't fit so I had to modify them.
and put red arrow logo centers on top.
This is with 14"Cragar SS while I was still refinishing the z28's.


The Grand Theft Auto IV IMPONTE RUINER is a mishmash of Camaro and Firebird body parts so the car is an approximation of the game car but close enough to leave no doubt.
