There is no such thing as a 'widebody kit'. You may be able to find some front fender flares on ebay, but they require work, and the rear fenders are part of our uni-body, so it requires more extensive bodywork to widen the rear quarters.

There is a WideBody kit. 6LE are making them and there's some on eBay but I think the fit and finish is terrible on the eBay ones. I think that's why 6LE is making them along with a Harrell/Sunoco style front bumper but with an updated twist. I don't know if 6LE has them on sale or not but I know if you look, you can find em one eBay. For the record, the kit I'm referring to fits over the existing body panels on the car so you either have to mold them to the car or have a shop do it.

I have 1 of our Dick Harrell-ish front bumper left for sale (the 6litereater version). Never been installed. Asking $300 plus shipping for it. It looks exactly like these!

Since you're local, save yourself shipping and drive down and hang and with us (PHK) one Friday night.

OP, 6LE has a lot and great stuff to offer to use LS guys. Weather it be a Camaro, T/A, Goat, and I think so Corvette, I don't have to Vette to look into there stuff much. And as you can tell, some of there stuff is either original or already been done but enhanced to accomidate the new times a little without being overly done.

If someone could get there hands on a Gmmg DH Camaro, I could make a mold of the fenders and quarter panels. But I doubt a DH camaro owner is going to let anyone do that. 8(

Some people mentioned legalities. It kind of made me smile.. Right. GM is going to sue over trade mark infringement. Over an after market kit? Count all the replica wheels, after market SS hoods, Spoilers, etc. I might just make one from scratch on my car. I've done a few body's in the past with much success.

That bumper looks interesting but looking at it I can't help but picture Bubba from Forest Gump.

It will have to be a custom one off deal,look for austins fender flare thread in the paint in body,he had wide fenders put on the rear of his ws6, came out really good, also plan to pay a good buck to have it done, i think 5 grand would be cheap, just have to find the right body guy skilled enough to do that kind of work,and take him as many pics as you can find, them ya will need some custom forged wheels,and a 427 to top it off lol

He did the body work i believe, its mcnords old car, pretty sure he sold it not to long ago,like i said get as many pics as you can find and find the right guy, its doable but i think the funds to do it limit alot of us when it comes to a project like this,but some guys work cheap,but the ones that have enough skills to do something like that are not cheap lol

I hate to drag up an old thread. But, is there any vendors out there that do wide-body fenders for 98-02 Camaro's? All of my search activities come up w/only body kits and no actual wide-body parts.

Nothing production wise, you would be doing all the body work yourself or pay out the *** for it. 6LE will make molds for the fenders and quarters with RKSport if they have good sales on the Dick Harrell front bumper they are working together on and if enough people put in for pre-sales.
