My '86 IROC, what do you guys think?

Here are some pics of my Iroc. I just put on different wheels and lowered it a little. What does everyone think of it? It is 350 carb, 5-speed, hardtop, black interior, ls1 front brakes, 4th gen black cloth seats, alum drum 10 bolt rear, soon to be 9-bolt disc.

Looks good. But, change the Z/28 rims to IROC rims, and it would look great.

Not sure what color you mean by HOT red. On the car or wheels? If I repaint the car it is sure as hell not going to be red again. I personally hate red. But I could not pass up on getting this car. As a matter of fact, I just so happened that I got this car by trading a '91 notchback crustang that I did a 4cyl to v8 swap in. I hated that p.o.s. but I did get another f-body out of it. I am really into black wheels right now. My GTA has 18" black H.R.E. wheels on it also.

You should have left it alone. Looks better in this pic. The newer style rims you put on that were painted black belongs on a 91-92. Looks bland. Just doesn't go with your car now. Just my opinion.

HOT red is a particular color. Try to google it. Try googling a Lt4 intake..
that might get you in the ball park. It is not like just regular red..
it has sort of a pinkish hue or contrast to it.. Its not pink at all but its very pretty...And just the wheels not the whole car.
Here is the closest i can find of hot red.
