Base Widebody Conversion...what else do I need
I am doing a widebody Z06 quarter panel conversion on my 2013 base coupe. I have not taken anything apart at this point, and have been getting the parts I need. So far I have OEM quarters, liners, brake ducts, and splash guards, what else do I need besides hardware? Thanks!

hi, this is the c7 section. you're posting about a 2013 which is a C6.
apparently you first posted this, somehow, in the C8 section.
are you maybe a little confused? guys guys, think we found who's posting while drunk..

You will need a LOT more. Aperture panels are rocker panel and door frames. Rear bumper. Front fenders. Fender vents. I have the list give me a day to find it. I did this job. Aperture panels are not fun.

moved it to the C7 forum(Maybe they had beers too). Definitely wouldn't use the C8 forum for advice...they know nothing about our cars. But I definitely didn't put it here. Want nothing to do with a C7 lol.
Please someone save me!
