Default Detoxx got a widebody and wheels

Picked it up earlier this morning but I went to get a alignment and get my wheel sensors set. They did an amazing job and i'm very happy with my wheel/color choice. 2008 C6 with rear Z06 quarters paint matched and blended on the car.

Wheels are CCW SP16a 19x10 front on 275/30/19 NT05's and 19x13 rear on 345/30/19 NT05R's The finish is competition grey and I added carbon corvete emblems. Next will be tinting the tails and sidemarkers and the appearance part is pretty much done cause it makes okay power for now. Hope you enjoy and comment as you please.

Before:

Just some quick cell phone pics for now. I'll have a real shoot done sometime this weekend

Looks great. About how much did it cost for paint / install? I'm thinking of going widebody next year, but mulling over the costs.

Looks great! If I can find a deal on a JSB rear set next year I want to do the same.

Thanks everyone. Paul it cost $1600 for the paint. That's including disassembly, prepping the new fenders, prepping the doors and hatch, getting the rear bumper done, blending all of it and more. They did a amazing job.

That looks beautiful man good job! I wonder what it would look like with those side markers shaved.
It would be amazing if the quarters on Fbodies could be removed in the same fashion.

If you have time wait for a deal to pop up on a used set. I've seen complete rear fender kits go for around $1500, much cheaper than having to have it painted. Also, with red your chances of finding a match are MUCH better than with orange, and there's much less of a chance of them not matching up well (I've heard the metallic colors can vary a lot from car to car).
