7 Head Turning C7 Corvette Body Kits

Ivan Tampi XIK Widebody Kit

The C7 may be gone or at least replaced by the C8, but it certainly hasn't been forgotten by us or the burgeoning aftermarket. As an example, we've assembled 7 of the most head-turning body kits available for the very last front-engine Corvette, starting with the XIK widebody kit from Ivan Tampi. This kit certainly isn't cheap, with a price tag just south of $15k, but it's made from carbon fiber, is limited to 100 total sets, and contains a substantial 15 pieces for a true visual transformation.

Weapon X Z06 Widebody

Widebody kits are sort of a love it or hate it proposition, but there are actually benefits to fitting wider fenders to a car like the Corvette, including the ability to install larger tires underneath. That's certainly true with Weapon X's Z06-mimicking widebody kit for Stingray models, which carries a price tag just under $5k, making it a solid choice for those that want to change up the look of their Stingray or go with wider rubber.

DarwinPro BKSS Style Widebody Kit

If OEM isn't your thing, DarwinPro has the perfect solution with its BKSS-style widebody kit, which totally changes the look of the C7 with a large front air opening in the bumper, a huge rear diffuser and wing, and wider fenders, all for a price tag of around $6,600.

Competition Carbon C7RR Widebody Kit

Competition Carbon's C7RR widebody kit is also made from carbon fiber and costs a whopping $16k, but it's a truly stunning set of parts that totally transforms the way the C7 looks from every angle. The kit's design was inspired by the C7.R GTLM racer but is actually three inches wider, as well as 7.1 inches wider than the Z06.

Lingenfelter ACS Widebody Conversion

Lingenfelter is obviously one of the oldest names in the Corvette business and its ACS widebody conversion kit is a popular item thanks to the fact that it widens the C7 by a full two inches, giving owners the ability to fit 20-inch wheels underneath with 335/25 tires.

Duraflex Gran Veloce

Ferrari has long provided a benchmark for the Corvette, so it's really no surprise that many body kits aim to give the Chevy some Prancing Horse-inspired styling. That's certainly true of Duraflex's Gran Veloce kit, which aims to make the C7 look like the Ferrari F12 Berlinetta. Love it or hate it, we're guessing that more than a few folks won't know the difference, at least.

Supervettes SV8.R

Finally, we have a C7 body kit that exploded on the scene a couple of years ago, yet doesn't appear to be available anymore - Supervettes' SV8.R. Regardless, it's one of the wilder offerings that has ever existed, consisting of a total makeover with the idea of making the C7 look more like a hypercar. The company originally aimed to make just 100 kits in total, which consist of 23 panels at a staggering cost of $60k - minus installation.
