J. C. Whitney would be a good source for add ons of this quality. I think they still carry fake side pipes too! That would be a good compliment to them fenders!

I think you should take your Vette and drive it into a wall at 60 MPH, it would look much better and it would be free
And as far as Duraflex, I would not touch anything they made with a 10' pole

Person comes in and asks a specific question : "Will this fit?"

Everyone responds with "its ugly".

Nobody actually answers the original question.

Look, friends, yes, we are all free to express our opinion, but the original poster didn't ask for opinions on whether or not he SHOULD do it, only that he wants to know if he CAN do it. Regardless of my opinion whther or not I think this particular kit looks good or bad, I would say NO, I don't believe these will be any sort of easy fix. You would probably be better off finding some generic pieces cheaper and fitting them. Honestly, look at import catalogs and offroad catalogs. This style is popular with both those crowds. You can probably find them for signfiicantly cheaper than you could with a specific "Corvette" branding.

They're not the style with the visible bolts, but the only place I could find that (still) sells C6-specific fender flares is TruFiber... Specter Werkes also used to have a set, but it's looking like they may no longer be in business.
