Default Widebody for c5's?

I like the c6 widebody, but are there any available for the c5? And how different are the qtr panels and fenders of c5 vs c6? Would it be that difficult to retrofit the c6 kit to a c5?

Looks like it's just the rear quarter panel...
Stock rear bumper, just a little flare on the quarter to fit wider rubber.

ACP Makes two different body kits.

Tha ACP Z11 and the Wide Body. I like the wide body more as it subtle.

Here is a link to one that is for sale.

Yeah I think the Wide Body C5 is a class act.

I caught this Caravaggio on CF a while back ...
