Default Fender flares on camaro
I am not sure I would want this or not but I would love to see a camaro with wide fender flares I saw a pic of what was labeled as a power tour racing camaro in a thread labeled "someone please make a different hood" on page 5 (if you do an advanced search on this site you will find it).
I Kinda like the dick harrell camaro body but something just doesnt look right about it? I am kina weird in the sense that i am a purest and will keep all of my original stock car parts but I am also thinking that i want something wild, original and exotic looking. Anyone with any other unique ideas for a body transformation please post a pic
if anyone can help photoshop something or tell me where to find some wide body racing kits please let me know

I think the DH camaro is the only flared fender style fbody around, but I could be wrong. As far as the looks of a camaro goes, Im all for a bold new wild look.

The DH cars are great but I really like the flaring on the ZL1.

They "Influenced" them out to fit the tires underneath it. It's technically stock quarters with no flares installed, just the stock sheetmetal stretched to fit.

The ZL1 above was built by Jon Moss. It is very different from the GMMG ZL1s.

Correct, the one pictured above was built by John Moss in 1999.
