When I see those mods it reminds me of my third Corvette (1969). It was wrecked, salvaged and a tilt mako shark nose was "installed". Spent a bunch of money, the car was never right and ultimately would have been worth more if it was fixed with correct original parts. It looks nice but personally I wouldn't do it.

Do you have any pics of the fenders installed with the BSM on the door panels?

Has this car been lowered or is it just the CF trim that makes it look that way?

Mark wrapped that himself in real carbon.

I believe it was lowered a bit.

These "carbon fiber" panels are actually just fiberglass with an outer layer of cf on them, correct?

Actually no. They are a real carbon piece but reinforced with fiberglass. They are made just like any other carbon part, but instead of lots of layers of carbon, fiberglass is used. This helps keep the cost down. If we used multiple layers or carbon the price would easily double.

I personally love the TPE rears but unfortunately they have gone out of business and the owner is impossible to get in touch with.

Quick ZO6, do you have any pictures to compare the TPE rears and your flared rears to see the difference? Does the C6 splash guards work with yours?

These are our rear flares.




And in carbon





The OEM C6 splash guards can be modified to fit from what I hear, but the L5's won't work on these fenders.

Pete,

Would you please return my call regarding the refund for the fenders I purchased? I have emailed you the pictures of the destroyed items as requested. Thanks Ted
