I am about to buy a 91 RS and I have a really dumb question. Would a 88 Iroc Z hood fit on the RS, and if so how much do you think the hood will cost me. I just like the hoods of the Iroc's a lot more than the RS's.

 

it will fit, dunno about the price though.

 

Thanks for the answer and by the way im 15 and after the Camaro Im starting on a 1978 Firebird Spirit so if you have any ideas on that feel free to post.

 

cool, good to see other young members, I started on my Trans Am when I was 14. good luck with your cars man.

 

hah 15 Here turning 16 in 8 days. I'm in an auto body shop class at my school so I know bodywork pretty good. I hope mine turns out as good as your trans am.. :-D well see I was thinking a base coat clear coat of white. :-/ well see how it turns out lol. any suggestions on what types of paint to buy? Also how much do you think I should strip. I was thinking about going all out like removing the doors to paint the door jams etc etc but I dont know. Did You paint your door jams and every where?

 

Well the best type of paint I could say if House of Color. It dosent really scratch or get smuged easy. But it costs like 5 grand for the paint, primer and clear. But you get a really funny reaction if u ask a guy at macco to paint your mirrors with it. And if you choose a paint that you think looks good but has a bad shine quality go to http://www.zainostore.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc thats the best of the best look at the pics there.

 

I use only ppg products for base coats but I like to use omni for clears as it tends to get less orange peel for me. I just sprayed a hood for my boss with napa products, it came out nice but I dont know how napa paints hold up.
when I did my car I sprayed the jams before my car itself but I just opened the door/hatch and taped up.

 

yea I'm gonna spray the jams also was thinking about it all day today. My wheels also need some new paint and some light 1500 sand paper around the paint areas because theres like dirt and grit I can get out with a buffer etc etc.

Gahh I hope it comes out good. Its my first Real major project. Other then that i have just spot painted and painted a bunch of motor cycle tins.
