92 5.7 z28 hood louvers ,25th badge dash questions??

were all hood louvers on 92 z28 same color as car?...or was it possible to get them black from factory?

and did all 92 z28 have the 25th. anniversary badge on dash?

hope this is in correct place...i've also done research and found neither question so far....

The hood bulges should match the color of the car. All 92 Camaros say 25th Anniversary on the dash.

Mine are the same way -I like them too - car came to me that way & I decided to keep it that way. Updates the look IMHO - a little less vanilla.

Tinted glass gives it that stormtrooper look.

Black seems like the go-to color to repaint things. It's a universal trim color that goes with everything. I don't know if that's why you see the hood blisters painted black, or if it's a throw back to Iroc styling.

To my eyes it just always looks tampered with. The body colored blisters are part of what sets the 91/92 Z28 apart from the 85-90 Z28.

Incidentally, Duplicolor has the correct shade of white available in rattle can. Just in case.
