RS to IROC

i want to know if it is possible to put in the section in my rs bumper where the fog lights go that are on the Z28 and IROC, or do i have to replace the whole front bumper or clip. i searched for it but could not get a definite answer.

Re: RS to IROC

You can either cut the louvers on the RS grill, but it is a lot easier to buy a bowtie or "camaro" grill, and buy a set or fab up some fog light brackets, mount, wire and go. I did it on my 91RS, and my lights are a little crooked, but thats cuz I suck at fabricating stuff like that.

Simply swap your current grill for the IROC style (still available from GM, I believe). No bumper/clip replacement.

Re: RS to IROC

ryan,

Welcome to the board.

I also have an RS. All you need to do is take out the RS grill and put in a Z one instead. Come fogligts come with brackets so no fab required.

You may want to put a longer air dam below your car to keep everything cool.

Re: RS to IROC
