Widebody Conversion Kit Installed.
Just installed my Widebody Conversion kit with a little help of my Forum buddies(Vettejoel,C6coupe,Par34n5,And kenny. I Purchased a complete kit which Included painted fenders,z06 oem chrome rims(front & back No tires)inner fender wells and all hardware Shipped to me for $2385..We installed them in about 5 hrs.Im sure if we did a second set we would have them on in 3 to 4 hrs now that we know what to expect.I also lowered the car 1/2 inch all around.I could not be happier.I had a buddy polish up the fenders alittle(some minor blemishes) The fenders came painted from the person I dealt with.Its alittle off,but I expected that since it was painted off the car in another state.I will have it blended into the doors & rear.I am extremely happy with the way it came out.Heres some new pics from todays Meet at Captree
I also took a picture of it next to a Buddy(Bobby) Atomic orange z06.

Looks good but "complete kit" ? Your rear "quarters" look great but now you are hanging a fair bit of wheel and tire out of the front fenders. Finish it out and do the fronts. You are already have the 9.5" front hoops.

The wide body looks great.
Now that's what I have been waiting for a complete painted kit. You got to tell us where you got it? I am looking for the same kit to install myself. Can you tell us where you got it and if it had all the hardware you needed or just the painted parts and wheels. Please send a PM if you can if they are not a forum vendor. Thanks,
