Re: parts

Im putting IROC nose, fenders and hood on my 84Z28 right now. everything bolts up just fine so far no problems.
I think on a regular camaro you will have to fabricate some sill brackets to get the rocker ground skirts to mount other than that, just some minimal mods outta do it.

Re: parts

I'm doing this with my 84 right now, I did notice that the honeycomb was a little different. On each side near the turn signals, the 84 honeycomb was sticking out maybe half an inch too far toward the bottom. I just trimmed it off, and now it fits fine.

For the sills, if you don't have GFX to start with you'll need to fabricate some brackets to mount them too.
