I believe it had to do with mandatory front disc brakes (credit applied) & suspension requirements on both the Z28 & SS. Non Z28 & SS cars with JL8 likely required a suspension upgrade & no front disc brake credit which drove the cost up to $623. I'm only speculating based on what material is available.
Either way - you ordered JL8 you go 15" wheels and tires

Yeah, it's hard to imagine they ordered a rear spoiler, dual exhaust on a non SS or Z28 car with JL8 brakes. But I guess it's possible. It's hard to tell from that picture if the car has Z28 stripes or not but with the full size rear bumper guards it makes me think it's a Z28.
