85-90 Iroc / 91-92 Z28 Grilles??

I know the 85-90 Iroc Grilles have the "Camaro" logo in the center. And the 91-92 z28 Grilles have the "Bowtie logo" in the center. Is this the only difference between the two.
I have a 92 Camaro RS. I want to swap my grille.......but I need to know if they will both fit perfectly. I do not care about the logo, because I need a front license plate, in NJ.
Thanks!

If you're putting it on a RS you may have to drill some new holes in the bumper cover, that's all the grille attaches to.
Simple.

Better hurry up though,....my dealer said that those had been discontinued in the 91-92 form....Has anyone else heard this too? I thought maybe he had lost his mind, or was just tryin to make a sell. He said 47 dollars....Does this sound right?

I didnt even have to drill holes, the plastic was soft enough i screwed the stock screws right in - however you will want to get some counter sink screws or they stick out ugly between work and school and the gym i havent had time to change that yet, but its SUCH an easy install - took less than a lunch hour.

They fit no problem....when I got my car repainted in April I decided to replace my old grill with the newer one. Personally I think they look 100x's better.
