Sure wish you'd have also mentioned that along with their pics, which brand of flares they were using. But great thread idea!!
Along these same lines, how many different brands of C5 flared fenders are available to us? I liked the TPE ones, but have heard they're no longer in business. Does anyone know about them?

TPE rears here. I'm considering doing the fronts with 18x11's and 315's.
