so i did a complete wide body conversion on my 2018 stingray. the rear fenders dont line up for **** to the lower rockers. iam still using the stock stingray lower rockers what have you done to make em look better?
Wide body aperture panels are different than the narrow body panels.
In the rear, usually guys install the ACS brake ducts and either bolt them on and leave the seams or have a body shop blend them into the existing aperture panel. The front fenders can be matched to the narrow body aperture with body work as well. There's no magic adjustment. The other fix is to replace the narrow body aperture panels with wide body parts. It's a LOT of work since those are bonded to the frame and everything is aligned to them.
I did the ACS scoops and had the body shop blend to have no seams and looks pretty much factory. There is a little bit of a difference but most people have no idea it's not factory. Unfortunately, the Z06/GS aperture panel is on national back order. I heard that GM has stopped making them. That's why i went with the ACS scoops.

I have sank over 50k in performance upgrades and decided to stick with this one. In hind sight, I should have started with a GS and went from their but I couldn't find one I wanted at the time. So far though it has been a fun project.
wide body conversion
Not an easy or inexpensive solution to matching up the panels.
