I have a 25th Ani. Car, but why don't I have the decals?

I thought that on the dash it would say Z28: 25th Ani. Edition, but it only says Z28 in yellow letters.

Is there any other decals that should be on my car besides them too. My Z28 on my rear is red if that matters at all.

First of all run your VIN through a VIN decoder just to make sure its a 1992 Camaro.. because ALL 1992 camaros got the badge on the dash that says 25th anniversary.

Your car could have had it but it mighta fell off and replaced w/ a regular z28 one.

You should also have the red 25th annv. badge on the back left right above the taillight on the decklid.

If it has the appearance package, it should have the stripes. Just put them back on.

lol memphis had buyers from the middle east, those saudis are only interested in mercedies or rolls royce or ferraris. sure wish i lived in the middle east so i could pay no tax and make millions.

hey Z28 if these are the same pics you sent me, i didnt realize that camaros came stock with the stripes across the hood and down the back.

Gramps you forgot mid '80s Caprice/Impalas on that list because they like them too.
But a repaint does sound like the resonable idea the stripes/badges weren't put back on the outside.Now the one on the inside is a different story.Possibly it was damaged and just replaced with what was easy to obtain.

I guess so, I looked for a louver rpo code, but I couldn't find any for my Z, so the other owner either put them on there or somethings fishy...

you have to remember that 90% of thirdgens weren't taken care of that well and parts were expensive to replace. all 92's have the 25th anniversary under their respective name on the dash from the factory but not all of them had the stripes or metal tags like the anniversary z28 had on the decklid.

also, just like the early years of kids stealing cadilac emblems to make necklaces many people stole these emblems off of cars. another reason why they are hard to find and pricey.

a 92 is a 92 but only anniversary editions should be considered such, it's funny when you see a stripped down base model v6 with no options trying to be passed off as a anniversary edition because it's a 92. one of the few things i wish thirdgen owners would stop.

that's like claiming a pace car model is a pace car when it was never bought with the pace car option...
