Thanks Dave. The first link you have I dont know what the flares will look like. The second one has the panel. If I can see what the first one looks like I would like the first one. I think it has the wide strip and I will let the body man mold it in. I think the second one is a quarter panel you have to mold in

Check with ACI (American Custom Industies). They carry just about any fiberglass part to make a complete body. They fabricate many custom options IE, Hoods, Flares, Spoilers, Ground Effects, Front and Rear Facia, etc.

Vette(s): 1968 coupe bought in 1999, 2nd owner, 427 custom built, 4 speed (M20), 3:36 posi rear end, Recaro seats, Intro wheels, Nitto tires, Flowmasters, etc. Painted nite race metallic blue.
Sermersheim's Corvette in Evansville, IN probably has the best fiberglass. Phone is 812-424-4701. I believe the large flair for the rear goes for $450 per pair. The front flair goes for $400 per pair but I believe they stop on the front with the 79's. The rears go thru the 82's.

I have an entire widebody kit. I purchased the car with the kit already put on so I am not sure who manufactures it. When I had the car painted the body shop touched up some of the imperfections in the attachment to the main body. I beleive it is fiberglassed in place. It makes the car look about 10 inches wider from the rear, very aggressive styling. Send me your e-mail and I can send you some more pics of the car at different angles if you are thinking about going this route.
