88 - 90 IROC Stripes

Anyone know how wide the 88 - 90 IROC body stripes are? I know the 85 - 87 stripes were different (one small and one large). I think the two 88 - 90 stripes were both the same size.

Thanks in advance,
Hylton

The upper stripe, black, is about 3/4 inch wide, the lower stripe which is near the interior color of the car, is about 3/8 inch wide on my car.

Thanks Tom,

Does that mean that black on black cars automatically got the blue/black stripe combo?

Tom,

Was your car repainted because those measurements sound like the 85-87 stripe widths.

Thanks,

Actual meas. are more like 7/16 and 13/16 to 7/8 inch. I think, pretty sure, the earlier stripes were reversed, the thinner color stripe on top and the wide black on bottom. Car was repainted and I got the stripes from Decal King, GM certified supplier, priced to match for sure. (ouch) Here's a quick picture, ignore the dirt please:

Cool car Tom! Did you know that 88 was the only year you could get a grey IROC? Never seen one with red interior before. Mine has the grey interior with black/silver stripe combo.

Thanks for the info.
