Re: PLEASE HELP !! iroc decal question

Ive always thought the door decals should be year specific.
Badging is a way to identify a car for what it is. If its a 1989 IROC-Z than the decal helps distinguish it from the earlier cars. Not only that I think it looks better that way.
This is my 89 IROC-Z

I have a 3in. Flowmaster American Thunder cat back (80 series muffler)with a 3in. Magnaflow cat and I love it.
Its really only the badging that I think looks best year specific, but as you can see what tires you run/etc. are totally up to the owner.
Here's were I bought the cover for my "10" bolt.

You know if you did the badging forward and ran the wheels that you want you would cave a clone, then you would have to change you user name.

Re: PLEASE HELP !! iroc decal question

If I remember correctly these are 9 bolt ratios 2.77, 3.08, 3.27, 3.45 , 3.70 , 3.9, 4.11.
Other than that I don't know much about 9 bolts
Here's a site that deals with 9 bolts = http://www.9bolt.com/index.html
And here's one that is basically a tech article = https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/faq-...now-about.html
