C5 flared quarters
At chevyvettefest in chicago last weekend I met Scott from www.maxacc.com who was showing his new quarter panels for c5 that will allow 345's. I ordered a set on the spot and will post some pics when the car is done. Finally a option other than tubbing.

I'd also like to know how they deal with that gap. I assume these are made of fiberglass cloth?

he did not have a car there, just fenders, soooo that is a very good question. On our purple c6 with hand made quarters I patched in the liner. Still alot easer than tubbing

Hmmmm.... don't like it and I'm in the market for something similar. They look overdone if that makes any sense.
Somoene posted up pics of a purpleish car w/ custom made ones that were just right.

Tom I didn't look yet but does he make a flare for the front? I like yours because they are sutble. I didn't like the new really flared ones that he made. Where are the ones in the link above? I went to the site but didn't see them.
