Default corvettecreationz flared quarters (installed)
loosley mounted , very easy to install. just had to drill holes and do some minor sanding on a couple runs. very minor stuff. the only part that was off was the dent for the screw hole in the top of the door sill just had to drill the hole about a 1/4 inch from the indent.



i did the paint and prep on my own in my garage. all the prep i had to do was shoot some high build primer ( evercoat featherfill g2) and block smooth.

How was it getting to the fasteners between the quarter and the roof pillar? It looks like a tight squeeze to get in there.

Those fasteners are conveniently left loose by the factory so u dont need to unscrew them until the panel is off...luckily it just takes a gentle tug once all the other bolts are out and it pulls right out from under them

Crazy how the wider fenders make the car look so much more aggressive.

Looking really good so far. Sure wish the factory would have put those fenders on the car from the factory. Be sure to post up pics when you get the car back together.

They look great but the paint would match better if you threw dirt all over the new fenders.

BTW: What catback are you running???
