Default Ok, who's ready for TPE style Flared Rear Fenders

Now that we have the front fenders done and out of the way, I'm looking to start on the rears. I'm going to use the same manufacturer for the rear fenders that we used for the fronts. They will be available in carbon and glass. Quality will be the same as our fronts, and I think most have seen now that the front fenders came out really nice. I think these will match our fronts better than the current rear fenders we offer.

Just so you guys know, it's not a matter of if...it's a matter of when. We WILL be making them and I hope I can get on it asap. I'm hoping that with lead times etc we can have them as early as January. I'll probably be ordering 10 sets, with 2-3 being carbon (which will be the first of this style in carbon anywhere) and the rest in fiberglass. I'm going to predict that these will sell out really fast, especially once we get the first set test fitted etc. I don't expect any issues with fitment as this manufacturer has done really good for is so far. Anyway throwing this out there, I know a lot of guys really wanted TPE style rears...so get ready, we will have them soon.

IF I hadn't already bought your current rear flared fenders Pete, I would be hard pressed to not be interested in these. Glad to see you're still very actively supporting us in the C5 crowd. I'm sure that they will be great.

Can you explain what major difference is between your existing rear flares and the TPE shape? Advantage of one over the other? Also, will you be making rears for the FRC/Z06 or coupe only?

Hey guys yes I will be making both coupe and Z06/vert. I need to get a set of vert fenders so we can use the top of it and we’ll just make a coupe
sifferent molds.

As most know the TPE fenders are smoother than ours as far as the flare. My biggest reason for the new fenders is I want there to be more consistency. Our current flares sometimes they fit perfect and other times not so much. These of course as mentioned will be with the same manufacture of our fronts and those came out nice.

Not sure on pricing yet, I’d expect them to be similar to my fronts $799 in fiberglass. Paint will not be an option though, way too much can go wrong in shipping etc.
