Question About Emblems

Simple question, but I couldn't find anything about it on the forums.

There are multiple tri-color IROC badges that I've seen, I'm just curious what denoted what car got what color badges. Was it based on paint scheme or year or random? Same question with the pre-87 IROC wheel center caps. I've seen silver font on black and red font on black.

Re: Question About Emblems

I Think What Interior Color The Car Had Was A Deciding Factor.

From Subroc:

Is the question what peoples center caps are or what they were from the factory? From the factory it went;

Gold wheels/gold door decals = gold center caps
Silver wheels/red decals = red center caps
Silver wheels/silver decals = silver center caps

The only way to get the gold centers was with gold wheels and decals. Silver and red centers came with silver wheels. And when i say what color the center cap is I'm referring to the lettering. All center caps from 85-87 should be black with the silver/red/gold iroc lettering. From 88-90 i think all the centers were the same and kind of a silverish color instead of black.
