The good news:
All Z28 hoods are identical. The '91 - '92 power blisters will bolt right on your '85 hood.
The bad news:
The power blisters are expensive, about $140 each. Chevy and Classic Industries are the only two sources I know of.
Check your e-mail. I sent you two pics of my white '87 IROC-Z with gloss black power blisters.

willie,
I'm sure you already know this, but just a catch on your comment!! All 85-92 Z hoods are the same. 82-84 are different.

Thanks for the clarification. I knew that, just forgot to state it.

Keep an eye out for them on this site's classifieds and post an ad in the wanted section. I managed to pick up a perfect used set for $100 for the pair. And yes, they bolt right onto an IROC hood. Mine dropped right onto an 86 hood.
