ditch that ugly wing, the hood bra, and the rear louvers and it'll be a good start

Lose the extra wing. Louvers look fine but I'd remove the partial bra. I love the white IROC's.

Get rid of the wing, rear window louvers, hood bra, taillight covers, and those cheesy exhaust tips. Then remove the dent guards/mouldings along the bodyside, and tint the windows.

That Bra will put giant rust spots on your hood. I had a 86 with one of those and when i took it off i had to replace the hood. Lovers are ok but the wing looks out of place. What about some window tint? The body looks to be in great shape.

I agree with the others, hack off that stuff. The car looks to be in pristine condition, you don't see that very often in a 3rd gen Iroc, so show it off.

It looks like decent original paint but it's faded to the point where the front and rear bumpers no longer match quite right. I don't like cheap aftermarket add-ons like the bra, light covers, window louver, rear spoiler, and especiialy hated black door edge protector(I have it too and it's coming off soon). I'd make it look original again and refinish the rims. Make them pop with a complete polish and re-clear, probably not chrome.
