85 Iroc, to 92' Z28 Body kit, Possible?
Here's the deal. I have always wanted a 92' Z28, and the thing about them I love is the indentions they have in the bottom body kit set up, compared to an 85. I swear I have seen older ones 84-87' that have had a 92' body kit for them. Now my thing is I have an 85' iroc. that I got a screamin' deal on, but I want it to have the from and side body kits to make it look more aggressive, and also have the wing on the back like a 1992 z28.
Now is this possible, is it hard to put on, like the wing, body kit, etc Do I find an old 92 and take them off and put them on, or is there a website with the kits you can order?... Because I really really want it to look like that with a nice hood and all blah blah blah.
However responds, thanks so much for your input.

It's very doable It's just a matter of finding the parts, mounting them is not hard if you can slot some holes and drill some new ones.
----------
Oh, adding the rear wing would involve filling 12 holes though. So factor in paint and bodywork for that.

No by doable and finding the parts what do you mean? Like just finding thing wing? And you have to make 12 new hole for it?

Its doable, my car was an S/E that the previous owner had began to put ground effects on. I searched junkyards for the pieces he didnt have, and put them on. You just need to find all the pieces, and take the time to piece it together. I left the wing I had on, so I didnt have a problem with that but I guess what the other guy is trying to say is the wing you want to put on has a different bolt pattern, so the old holes will need to be filled in.

Right, it's mostly a matter of locating the parts that you want to put on, as far as the GFX go. Two holes will need ovaled on each door, two holes drilled in the rear of each fender, and two slots cut into the front of each fender to install the parts. For the rear wing, there are six holes in the hatch and three in each quarter panel that will need to be shaved. Then eight new holes will need to be drilled in the hatch plus access holes under the hatch (hole saw) to mount the rear wing.
