Default OEM Widebody?

I may pick up a 2005 6 speed tomorrow, and one of the first things i want to do is a widebody. By widebody i mean an oem z06 or ZR1 kit. Or maybe the ZR1 extreme kit, but thats a lot more money. Where do you source parts from? Brand new OEM would be more expensive than the ZR1 extreme kit i would think. Theres one on ebay for around $2700 but i dont know if i should trust it, has anyone priced recylcers prices? Any other sources?

I have no experience with the kits. There are several vendors who advertise kits at The Corvette Forum. Their ads are in among the regular threads.

It's hard to beat the OEM fit. I'd do OEM over aftermarket body parts.

I'm going to be putting one on my 2005 vette here soon. Best price I found was through Scoggin Dickey. I talked to Beau there and we came up with a part list. I'm going to be doing the Grand sport kit but they can get the Z06 or ZR1 if you want.
