ok guys lets see what u think i cant decide on weather to badge this thing as z-28 or rs. i figure if i put quirt ex system on it with the small block and leave it as an rs everyone will think its a v8.What do u guys think, mind u this car has iroc quage cluster,steering wheel,1Le sway bars front rear, wonderbar, springs grill insert and tail light s on it now
all orig with iroc grill insert and rs badges/rims

and heres some with the iroc rims tail lights and z-28 badges dont mind the dirt car was dirty when i took these pics

 

leave the badging alone. sleeper-ish.

 

sleeper is out, you've got a window sticker. id say go for the z28, if for no other reason than that no one can make the joke Really Slow/Sucks about your car.

 

Why would you misbadge an RS as a Z28? lol

 

urban cause i was gonna build a nice z-28 clone rims badges lights interior pieces and full suspension, which ive pretty much done already and then some

so the better ? is should i put the rs rims back on and change the z-28 badges back to rs along with the tail lights, and rs grill insert or leave it all z-28 stuff ( dont forget im swapping in a 500+ hp sb 358 this spring time)

 

i say put whatever parts on it you want,,,except for badges,,,,it either is,,,or it isn't,,,,,,,or make up your own letters,,,,some guy on the board built a drifting car and made some 3 letter emblems,,,,was a red z and he something like zzd or sumthin,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,just my 2 cents but hey,,,its your ride

 

i wa sthinking about that 2 maybe getting soem custom 358 ci or 358 ss badges done or somethign liek that

 

I'm trying to remove and delete all my bades.

I like my rides like my woman

 

Well...if you leave the RS badges, everyone will think its a stinky TBI 305.... til you walk all over them.

I'm all for the sleeper thing. I'd like to think of my stang as a sleeper except for the dumps

 

yeah thats what i was thinking nixion except id pu tthe 2.8 multi port badge back on the rear bumper problem woudl be finding some good very quiet mufflers to keep this small block quiet,as for the engine it looks like a stock 350 but is far from it

 

i have done the lt1/t56 swap and am leaving the rs badging, i was going to make a clone but i like the slick looks of my rs and i like the fact that no one really knows what is under the hood till i kick there butt. just my 2 cents

 

No fancy badges can make up for not owning a Firebird

 

I'm JK dude cause I really have no place to talk.

I wasn't sure id be able to use these or not but I don't have much choice but to put them on.

Just wait till summer comes and I do the paint job to match and a slew of powder coated parts, then you can poke back

 

I don't need to look at a cars "badging" to tell if its something- Anyone who knows cars really doesn't look at something superficial as that- Only inportant to impress high school kids that are wet behind the ears and believe in stickers making a car fast.

Do yourself justice and leave it be.

 

screw it, just put honda stickers all over the thing and tell everyone its powered by 2 4cyls

 

That color was never offered on the Z28. It wouldn't matter if you applied all the badges and all the decals in the world, it still won't jive as a Z28 to anyone who has been around these cars very long.

You can do whatever you want with it, it's your car. However when you start mixing and matching parts the overall effect gets fouled up. In this case with Iroc wheels on a car in that shade of blue, with those GFX and then Z28 badges just looks like someone mixed a bunch of parts up and put together a Franken Maro.

If it's any consolation, I built a Franken-bird and now I've returned it back to the stock body parts.

 

spaz ur not getting ti im not talking about stickers im talking about the emblems on the side ground effects and the one on the rear bumper thats it

 

real simple, its not a z-28 so don't badge it as so, its the same deal as getting a type r sticker for your civic.

 

i figured it would just look better with them over a car with z-28 rims/lights but rs badges\, since an rs never came with those same with the guages

 

kretos speaks the truth!

 

I'd say leave it. There are plenty of people on this forum with fast RS's, rebadging it just makes it look like a cheapo clone-job.

 

thank you raven

 

I'd say go z-28 if it makes you like the car more mine's a heck I don't know but by the time I'm done the only thing it won't have that Iroc's do is, T-Tops and a V-8 have fun with it

 

By the way Dave your car looks so much like my old 91 RS that its scaring me. I had the same paint, 3.1 auto, with hatch louvers and exhaust
