What do you guys think? I sort of like them, and it reminds me of a C6 zo6.

Do you think it kills the flow of the car?

I have always like fender flares, and wide body. Namely porsche and audi S4’s.

I think if it improves the look, but I really do not think the slight difference is worth how much it probably costs. Though I guess if you are running super wide tires in the back then maybe?

It means business, thats why it looks hot, as long as you got some meats tucked under there with some HP to support em=Hot.

Well I really want to run something in the 315+ range tire size with a 12" wide rim. I will prolly be going with CCW’s.

I only have 550 wheel with :snky:

Oh and this will be both visually and functionally awesome.

Only if they make front fenders with flares in them.

Josh, is that a bolt on rear piece or flares added to the stock rear quarter panels.

Looks dumb with only the rear, especially with the jacked up ride height and tires not filling out the flares like in most of those pics.

And… :lol: at the mud flap on the red car, gotta protect that paint!
