I want to know where I can buy that whole corvette!

I'm not too familiar with the different wide rear fenders but those do look awesome

Yes those are the TPE T2's. Not sure of the availability of them. I think they compliment the Z06 and Verts the best. Such a smooth transition from the flare into the quarterpanel.

I think Quickz06 (Pete) from Carbon Creationz is a good start. He's regularly on the forum and currently working with a new supplier to get us better quality products.

I don’t know where this stuff comes from. Let’s say the quality has gone down it can’t be any worse then the other guy that has lots of quality issues his self. But think if the guy that made them still sells them you should buy them from him instead of a rip-off that someone else makes. My 2 cents!

It came up a few times on the forum in the past, but best those who are looking do their own research on all the vendors I would say is the bottom line. I recommend quickz06 since at the very least he offers a good customer experience in my case, but I can't speak for others.

I think each vendor that offer wide rear quarters for the C5 have their own unique characteristics. When used with the right wheel set up, suspension adjustments and other body enhancements, help compliment each individual fender. Carbon Creationz look the closest to the stock C6 Z06.
TPE T2's have a more blended transition from the flare into the quarter panel. I really like this for the Z06 and Verts. Doesn't look as well on the Coupe to me. The L5's have more of a rounded flare and fits well on the Coupe. I have looked at tons of pics and with each different flare there are some awesome looking rides. If photo bucket didn't change their policy I would post some pics of Vettes that really stand out.
