Wheels look great!!!!

Where did you get the fender flares from? Do you have any pictures of them. I have been looking for a set for my car to hide my 19 x 13's 355's.

huh? I got big brakes already...Fronts are made for my current C6Z06 brakes, and the rear will require a little more grinding of the stock caliper for the rear brake combo (Eradispeed +2 rotor) I already have

Yep, I know your front will fit big C6 Z06 brake but no way the rear like that would fit rear big C6 Z06 brake
