Default Widebody conversion front

Is there a way around not having to purchase zo6 inner fenders while doing the front conversion? And if so is it relatively easy?

yes, don't worry about it. Your stock inners are bonded in. You can extend to inner with some 2 in. strips of rubber or just leave them alone.

Thick/wide weatherstripping can be used to bridge the gap.

Check with a travel trailer/motorhome/truck canopy supply store.
