89's didn't come with gold GFX's are you thinking of 88 and earlier Camaro's?

Opps.. was not sure if this was a history/restoration thing or not.. Thanks for the move..

I'm pretty sure they did.. Mine is black.. according to my RPO list it has the delete for that, which reverted the Gold accent rims to plain aluminum.. and I have the paint code on my RPO sheet for upper and lower body color.. mine being both black. Unless the car only had a pin stripe.. which was deleted..

wait, are you talking about gold stripes on the GFX, or are you talking about actually having gold painted GFX?

I have the gold stripes/trim on my red Iroc.

RPO WW5??? Maybe???

does your car have gold accent rims?? I am taking about actual gold GFX.. but perhaps there is some truth .. perhaps the GFX where not painted gold.. but I was certian they woiuld have.. I have not seen any pics of a 89 with GFX a different clolor differing from the main body.. I know in the RPO stripe delete had to do with the pin stripe.. I was assuming that the GFX would have been gold also..

This is my car...it obviously has the gold accents/emblems/pinstripes.

For that matter, ALL Irocs ALL years had the same color(body color) GFX.
