I almost sold the IROC, I've had some problems with my car recently, new intake, water pump, and power steering pump. Anyways i considered selling the IROC for a integra gsr or prelude, cause all my friends in college have imports. The main reason i kept my car is because i couldn't find any imports, other than $20K+ supra's or rx7's i can't afford, that i think look as good as a 3rg Gen Camaro. Ok, so now i have about $3,000 i was gonna use to get a newer car to put into the IROC now I was thinking of getting the C6 ZO6 Hyper Black rims, 1inch drop, some slotted rotors, and i like the wing from the 91-92 Z28's. would it be too black? maybe some grey rims? i don't really care for chrome rims. I haven't done much to my car the last 2years, i just wanna make it stand out a little more. here's some pics of my IROC

Have you introduced yourself on the Southwest Regional board? I don't recall seeing you there..

i think a prokit drop , and some 17 inch rims , like maybe snypers or even go with an 18inch polished iroc rim and then paint it to look stock , if anything keep your spoiler but het a different glass without the 86 only 3rd brake light .

hoenslty this might sound stupid, but if you almost sold it you might now wnat to dump any moeny into it.

Wow you read my mind with the iroc wheel idea I'd take a look at the hawk's 5" spoiler although the high rise is always nice to see. The C6 Z06 is a really nice wheel and it would go very nicely with the black paint and the iroc door decals. Regardless, that's a real nice looking iroc and you sound like you have some good taste in what you want to do with it. Good luck bro.

Thanks, i'll check out the southwest board, i haven't been on here much the last year. i'm gonna wait a few months before doing anything to the car, i wanna make sure it's gonna fit and look right before i go buying parts. yeah, i don't like the 86 hatch either, the 3rd brake light has never worked, i cant figure it out i wish i would have switched my old 88rs hatch before i sold it. here's a pic of my old car with the IROC

Thanks Gr89RS, i saw a 5 inch with the LED 3rd break light in it somewhere on here, it was sweet I see so many people here in So-Cal with bad taste, i can't believe what people do to their cars and they think it looks great. i work at a mall and see some stupid looking cars, i feel bad for the people in the passenger seats, but i do see some nice ones too though, but not enough

JohnS

found it, i forgot i saved it i'm not sure who's car this is but i like it a lot!

Although that spoiler is nice, that isn't the hawk's 5 inch im referring to. This is the hawk's 5 inch on irocbirdbuilder's car..



About the comment on taste I will agree with you to a point. As for the imports and other cars I agree the taste is pretty bad around here, but there are quite a few tastefully done thirdgens around or at least in my area of so-cal.

take a look at those plastic 'plugs' that are on the hatch and are near the 3rd brake light....if you can find a few more they plug right into the holes that exist when you take the third brake light off....it's what Im going to do when I get my hands on some

as for the Hawks 5" spoiler, I really think it only looks good if you have a tall hood out front to balance the lines....ie a cowl, ss, raII, big block, or jongeblod hood....otherwise it'd look weird with a stock hood and a large 'ducktail' wing out back

id definitely drop it, get the black C6 rims, but go with the hawks 5 inch spoiler instead of the 91/92 cause IMO it just doesnt look right without the full GFX kit. nice black roc you got there

5" spoiler
pro kit
17" roh snypers or 17" irocs i would say(but they dont make em)

and ur done.

damn i love black irocs...

First thing id do is just lower it, thats one of the most attractive appearance mods.

Ah yes the dark side. I will be going to the dark side on my next project, decided to step down my goals for my Z28 and possibly sell it by sometime in '06 not sure yet though. We'll have to see...

I say get N2O, and feel good next time you get next to a $20k car.

Oh, and I always though that with owning a third gen you are on the dark side!
