Re: IROC-Z decals

The openings for the emblems on the ground effects and bumper are all the same, regardless of model (RS, Iroc, Z28, etc), so they should fit fine for you.

Putting IROC-Z or Z28 emblems on a Sport Coupe is just........ wrong.

Don't get me wrong. It wasn't meant as a criticism of your car. I can appreciate the fact that you want to improve the looks of your car but I think you can do that w/o the emblems of another model. I've seen RS's & Z28's with IROC decals and honestly they look like stupid. If you've got a Rally Sport, you got a Rally Sport. Be proud of what you have and don't try to make it something it isn't. Those of us who know the difference between a RS and an IROC-Z will better appreciate your RS if you keep it original and authentic. Be proud of what you have. We won't think any less of you because you've got a RS and not an IROC or Z28.

I tend to agree there, but its one of those things that its a presonal preference. I have a 87 sport coup that I am almost done rebuilding. I plan to put the Z28 emblems on the rocker but put a "camaro" one on the back and on the dash. I feel I am justified though since I have the IROC motor, suspension, and body kit on the car now

Re: IROC-Z decals

Well yea I see what you mean I've done plenty of research to know which Camaros are which and I like the IROC-Z look. I like Titan85's idea about leaving the CAMARO sign in the back to show its roots but if I put a lot of IROC mods I'm sure the decals will be okay. I was just wondering about the decals though. haha.

Well a tricked out sleeper is a different thing. You can advertise what you got or you can keep them guessin'! I'd keep 'em guessin' and scratchin' their heads till they beg you to pop the hood! *evil grin*

Oh yeah, I once saw a fire chicken on a civic. I near puked! *lol*

Re: IROC-Z decals

Its your car. Put on Mustang decals. i once saw a 3rd gen. trans am with chrome IROC-Z rims in Irvine California. I asked him why did he do that and he said the car came with it when he bought new off the lot. We joked around for about an hour then he slipped....... He said his brother in law just got the rims back from the chroming shop in TJ and he wanted to buy them.

Re: IROC-Z decals

I should have mentioned that I have a 91 RS that has Z28 decals and I am thinking of adding IROC-Z decal to the doors .

Re: IROC-Z decals

I think you would get more eye appeal by just going to the IROC wheels. In my opinion the wheels and tires are the eye catcher.
