Default WTB: Wide fenders for C5 Z06

I'm looking for wide fenders for a 2003 Z06. I've checked into Carbon Creations and their fenders will add 32 lbs to the car, 18 lbs. in the rear and 14 lbs. in the front. I am hoping to find fenders that aren't so heavy.
Also hoping to get 2" wider in the rear and 1.5" wider in the front.
If there are any such fenders available please let me know.
Thanks

I seem to remember being told the Corvette Creationz fenders were lighter then OE, but the carbon fiber and fiberglass weigh the same (carbon overlay), but my memory is a bit fuzzy on where I was told that ... maybe I'm wrong or the information is wrong. If you don't mind me asking where did you get your numbers from?

I too am looking for front and rear fenders with similar coverage. I called ACP today but they were at PRI.

I called Carbon Creations and spoke to Daniel and called back a couple of days later and spoke to Chris just to confirm that info.
I believe I found what I'm looking for, I'll post info later, I'm waiting for a call back.

Interested in whatever you found out. I’m looking for a less than OE weight solution as well

I just ordered a set of front and rear wide fenders from Joe at Phoenix Performance, super nice guy to deal with. These fenders are the same weight as the stock fenders.

Rodbolt - how much were they? What materials (fiberglass, fiberglass+carbon, pure carbon)? Who makes them?
