are you talking about the stripes that go around the car just above the gfx. my car has the same stripes it factory but mine are the grey set. you should be able to find the origional graphics kits at phoenixgraphics.com thats where i found a set for my 85 z28.

I've only seen red/orange and grey/silver ones. If they're out there, Classic Industries will have them. I'll find mind and see if I can't find them in there. Like I say though, I've never seen them

I've got a triple blue emblem, it's a Z28 one that I'm pretty sure goes on the rear bumper cover. The guy I bought my camaro from just gave it to me it along with other misc. parts. It doesn't match my car, so I don't really need it. It's not in the best shape, but if you want it I'd sell it cheap.

i know what ure talking about. Very rare. Not even gm can get them any more. I wasa at an auto wrecker and swiped one i saw for the rear bumper. At another auto wrecker i saw one that were SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO sweet on the rocker gfx. But the f*ckers were on there so tight they were gonna snap if i took em off. So i left em.

The gold Iroc bumper emblem is tough to find also. During my repaint, the guy asked if I wanted to save the old one. I said, "if you can, sure, but no biggie." WRONG ANSWER. Took months to find one.

---good luck...keep lookin'!!!!

OK, just checked- they're in this years Classic Industries catalog.

Part# G8174 for the triple blue

It doesn't list a specific price, but the prices vary between 24.99 and 29.99 depending on what color.

Hope this helps

its definitly not in the best of shape, its got a couple of cracks in it and some fairly bad rotting going on between the "z" and the "2". i'll throw some pics up incase any one is interested in what it looks like, plus i get to show off my little dorm room ::insert lisp:: "accessories"
