iroc/z28 ground effects on camaro LT

hi, i have an 87 camaro LT. i was thinking about getting some ground effects from an iroc and putting them on. i was wondering if the rocker/door effects, bumper cover, and front spoiler from an iroc would fit on the lt which did not come with ground effects. how hard is it to put them on?

you would have to change out the nose for one that accepts gfx (any IROC or Z from 85<?>-92)and the rest is lining up gfx & drilling out holes

I'm not sure what you mean by changing out the nose, but if you mean replacing the bumper cover, then yes you have to change that. It will bolt right up to the fenders, and you don't need to change the impact bumper underneath unless you really want to. Other then changing the rear bumper cover too, everything is as deadbird said. I did it on mine years ago and it was quite easy.

by changing the nose, does that mean i have to replace the whole front end, including the headlight bays? other than drilling the holes for the rocker/door effects, do any other modifications need to be done?

The rocker pieces bolt to a bracket that's welded to the rocker panels, so you'll need to attach that as well. Beyond that, it's just drilling holes and replacing the front and rear bumper covers.
