Default Is it an RS?

My car is titled as an RS. But I don't see the body mods for it to hold up. Click my photo album link for more pics besides my sig. Could I make it an RS? My uncle works at a wrecking yard, so I could get all the body panels for ultra cheap. I've been thinking about doing a body kit, but I like the rs look, and am trying to stay my distance from rice land

A lot of titles say RS when its not. If you dont have the ground effects or emblems, its not. And yes, you could always add ground effects, but sometimes an aftermarket body kit doesn't look too good.

Like I said, I don't want a body kit, but I have access to my uncle's wrecking yard, so I could get everything. Did the RS's all have t-tops, or did some have a solid roof? I'm going to try and make an RS. What do I need to do to make it as accurate as possible?

The ground effects for the RS are killer, the previous owner pretty much destroyed them and i took them off because they scrape on every little dip, the front especially but speedbumps get the sides

Although many cars say 'Camaro RS' on the title, this does not mean they have a true RS Package. The RS Package Consists of:
3-Piece Rear Spoiler (extension on the stock spoiler)
Full ground effects (front, side skirts and rear)
Alloy Rims
RS Exterior Badges

I knew all that, but your roof and mirrors are black. I see t-tops too. Maybe I should get a poly body kit instead. I'm lowering it soon, so the rs stuff won't hold up long.

Hard to stay out of rice land. I'm an ex-ricer, and the genes are still in me, so I get carried away too easily looking at kits. I guess I have to find one I don't like

Oh well, thanks for the help ya'll
