I'll give you a call then.
I might have you install them, none of the body shops down here want to do custom work (they make more money raping insurance companys).
Good job in getting these made so soon, it was only a month ago you started on the C5/ZO6 fenders

My mold guy is a wizard. A few years ago I met him when he drove his viper in, or so I thought. It was a C4 with a Viper body kit he made. It was real sweet.

Offsets i figured to run 10 wide in the front and 12 wide in the rear are....
10 wide front, 22mm (ish) i say `ish`because a 20mm front is alot easier to find... 2 mm could barely be seen.
12 wide rear, 28mm (ish)
to fit like the oem c5z06 wheels
correct me if i am wrong....

The front would be the same as what we put on a a C6 Z06.
I need to figure the optimum size for the rear as we tubbed the last two C5s in the rear with the wide body kit.
I do know that a C5 can only take 8" backspace in the rear or it will rub the inner fender liner.
The rear wheels can be 12" wide with a 8" backspace.

Pricing for fronts only? (already have L5 rears). Price shipped to my office in Alviso, CA 95002? Or local pickup price?

I assume these require different fender liners? Are they included?

MSI was craftier than that.
We actually made the wrap around lip of the flared fender extend into the wheel well further so that the stock front fender liners are a direct bolt in.
The stock front bumper cover also deflects enough to accomodate the fender flares. Be warned, aftermarket fiberglass front bumper covers will need to be cut, refixtured and reglassed to accomodate the wider front fenders.

Hmmm, I have the TS front bumper (duraflex, not fiberglass). So, this will have to be modified to fit these flares?

Our original website crashed and we have been working hard to rebuild a new one. The old one had about 400 products, the new one over 1,000. I haven't added those parts yet. Yes they are still available. Just give us a call at the shop. We started selling firearms too.
Thanks,
Terry
