Newly Designed C6 (C06) Rear Fenders
Has anyone seen extended rear fenders that cosmetically match OEM C6 Front Fenders?
I'm thinking of producing these complete fenders in either fiberglass or carbon fiber, but as of yet have not decided. Designed to fit 325's on 12" rims and does not imitate the Z06 style, thus the name, C06 Fenders.
Any feedback on thoughts or interest of these parts would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your comments.

I would be interested! I want to do a wide body, but don't want to be a fake Z06. Something different! Then I would do a base C6 chin spoiler and some side skirts, and the full width rear spoiler. A real wide body C6, not a GS clone, fake ZR1, or fake Z06. Go for it!

Will work for HPDE time.
+1. It was the reason I went the way of flares vs. OE wide body panels...but I would like to have something a little more streamlined and integrated into the body.

Now THIS is what I've been waiting for....this one matches up with the bumper much better than stock and I was never a fan of the brake scoop on the factory widebody.

I have the ones Caravaggio did without the Z06/GS/ZR1 brake scoop. The only thing his version does not have is the matching wheel lip. These are fibreglass and lighter than the the OEM ones I replaced. The two reasons I went this route is there were no factory pieces for the convertible at the time (pre-GS days) and the Z06 scoop does not match the front fender opening. I think you should have a good market for these.

Looks great! Eliminates the main negative of a wide booty mod - the fact that the lip edge is different between the Z06/ZR-1 rear quater and the coupes front fenders. Very nice. Would be very intersted.
