if u look at the rear gfx piece it looks to be off by about a 1/4 of an inch or so but maybe it just might be the pic

I think that what you are seeing is cause by the gfx being molded into the rear bumper cover, and being a separate piece on the quarter. The bumper cover section has a much softer curve to it where the "gfx" and the upper part meet. Once he paints the car you wouldn't even notice it if the body is the same color as the gfx. I really believe that fit differences like this are one of the reasons Chevy liked body stripes so much, especially on the Z where the gfx are a different color than the body. Or maybe it was the fashion police that designed the stripes... :sillylol:


note: I actually like the body stripes

Looks good I had so much fun putting on my ground effects onto my 85 SC. You will be so happy you did that once you Paint or have it painted by someone, as for me I did all my body work, added the gfx, and then painted my car

I really love this pic, but I wish I had backed up 5 feet to get the front end in the pic as well.

Both cars look great! I just got some GFX for my car recently... can't wait to paint 'em and get them on... It will look like 85SportCoupeto89RS's but I may add either red or purple accents to set it off (maybe heritage style stripes)

Hopefully I'll get it done soon & post some pics
