IROC Grill
I just am getting around to putting the IROC grill in (the one thats says camaro) anyways, it looks like I may have to drill holes, not too sure, just got a quick look at it.
The grill needs painted however, what is the best way to paint it because I need to repaint the camaro lettering white also. Thanks

I'm not into glossy crap, so I painted my grill with satin black rustoleum and it's holding up beautifully. I painted the "CAMARO" with silver model paint, and a small detail brush. It came out great. If you look carefully you'll find that the stock CAMARO paint was silver, not white.
I also repainted my TUNED PORT badge on the bumper the same way.

Yes it did!!! Mine is gold...as well as all my emblems and wheel accents, and I have tan interior. I've seen 'em like this with blue,white,black and burgandy paint...but mine is the only one I've ever seen with red paint! I'm sure they're out there, but I've never sen one! Anyone have that combo? Oh and I also used rustoleom spray paint, aand I've never needed to do touch up! It also works for the tpi air lid...and airbox housing under the hood!!!

I've got a few pics on the IROC Homepage of maroon with gold trim. It's actually a somewhat common combo. If you mean bright red, I've seen that before too, but not very much.
