Wide Rear Fender Help please!
What vendors would you guys recommend that makes a nice set of wide rear fenders for quality fit and finish. Also could I use my 19/11 CCW wheels.

I like my TPE's, but the fit and finish requires a lot of work, and they're fiberglass. Pete with Carbon Creationz is supposed to be making some like the TPE shape. I'd wait to see his urethane version, if you like that style.
As for your wheels, you'd have to run a 2" spacer on each side if your wheels are flush with your stock fenders, which is not something I would do. I sold my previous CCW's so could get a pair made with the correct off sets that would bolt on, fit right, and look right.
Just my $.02 worth

I have the L5 and like the look on a C5Z. I would look at all the different makes on your style C5 since there are different body lines. Also, plan for fitment and paint work...there is no such thing as "bolt on" for these.

There are few forum vendors left to get rear flairs that will deliver. TPE I do not believe are in business anymore, and L5 vendor is super sketchy and wouldn't trust whatsoever. As calivette said forum member Quick Z06 (Pete) is the way to go. There are some re-sellers such but I just go with who you can trust.
