Hi All,

I'm looking for a GT350 set of fenders for my 16' GT, and I was wondering who makes the best ones, and if anyone sells a version of them that is wider then stock? I'm running 285 tires up front and it would be nice to have a little more space.

Thanks!
Chris

I "think" the Ikon ones are maybe .4" wider. I can't tell really though. They are touted as the best brand but they don't really fit %100 no matter how much massaging you do. I'm happy with mine, but I'd probably not do it again if given the choice knowing what I know now.

What is it that you know now that makes them not worth it?

Between the fenders, bodyshop paint/labor, I was looking for pefect. The end product was not perfect, but I'm super-picky. If someone is less picky, they would be thrilled by them. I still think my car looks awesome, it just wasn't worth $2200.

I have ones I bought thru MrBodyKit, but I think they are Carbon Dynamics fenders actually.
They are a bit wider than stock, but they do not really cover my 285's like a OEM Shelby fender would.
They reduced the poke from the stock GT fenders, but my sides are still getting sandblasted.

Cool! Good luck!
These are the closest to real GT350 ones I could find.
Here's a pic of mine next to a real GT350.

Looks pretty good, just not as wide. Did you do anything to make the vents functional?

I was planning on having the shop cut vents in the liner similar to how they are on a GT350, but ran out of time, and didn't bother.

They were part of the full GT350 front conversion pack they had.

Where did you get the GT 5.0 fender badge?

I just bought OEM GT350 ones and modified them.
Had to snip off the mounting pins since these fenders have no holes.
They're just on there with double sided tape. They are holding up well, even thru touchless carwashes.
