⚡ QUICK ANSWER

Six widebody kits for the C8, from $1,709 per end to $24,995 for a full carbon kit.

The notable aftermarket widebody kits for the C8 Corvette are Pandem, Liberty Walk, Sigala Designs C8RR, Duraflex Grand Veloce, Streethunter Designs and Label Motorsports’ Vouno. Published parts prices run from $1,709 per end for Duraflex fiberglass to $24,995 for Sigala’s full carbon kit. Chevrolet’s own wide body is 3.6 inches wider than a Stingray.

C8 Corvette widebody kits compared

This page started as a post about one car, the Label Motorsports widebody C8 from the 2021 SEMA Show. It now covers every C8 widebody kit and build I could verify, with the maker, what comes in the box, how much width it adds, and what the maker or a named source says it costs. Where a number was never published, the table says so.

Kit In the kit Material Added width Published price
Pandem (Rocket Bunny) Front lip, side skirts, front and rear over-fenders, rear wing FRP +40 mm front
+70 mm rear
$8,000
Liberty Walk Front bumper with splitter, side diffusers, rear bumper, rear wing, front and rear flares Standard or carbon fiber reinforced Not published $19,580
$21,780 carbon
Sigala Designs C8RR 32 pieces: every body panel except the doors, plus hood, roof and wing Fiberglass and carbon mix, or full carbon 6 in From $14,995
$24,995 carbon
Duraflex Grand Veloce Front and rear fender panels, sold separately Fiberglass Up to 4 in $1,709 front
$1,709 rear
Streethunter Designs Wider fenders, rear quarter panels, rear diffuser, wing, nose pieces Carbon wing, diffuser and splitter Not published Not confirmed
Label Motorsports Vouno 29 carbon pieces on the SEMA car, built as a complete car Forged carbon fiber Not published Not published

Prices are parts only, in U.S. dollars, as last published: Pandem from GReddy’s U.S. listing in October 2026, Liberty Walk from January 2023, Sigala from July 2021, Duraflex from March 2022. Check the maker before you budget.

Read those prices as the first line of the bill. GReddy’s listing says the Pandem parts ship in raw gel coat that needs prep before paint, and truck freight is extra. Paint, bodywork, installation, wheels and tires come on top of every kit here.

Factory wide body vs aftermarket widebody: not the same thing

Chevrolet sells its own wide body. The Z06, Grand Sport and ZR1 are 79.7 inches (2,024 mm) wide. The Stingray is 76.1 inches (1,933 mm). That is 3.6 inches of extra width, and it comes with tires to fill it: 275/30ZR20 front and 345/25ZR21 rear, against 245/35ZR19 and 305/30ZR20 on the Stingray.

An aftermarket widebody kit is a different job. It adds flares or replacement panels to a narrow-body car. The suspension, the hubs and the stock wheels stay where Chevrolet put them, so the extra body width is empty until you change wheels and tires. Some kits also need the factory fenders cut, which you cannot undo.

The money is worth a look too. For 2027 the Grand Sport puts the factory wide body on the Stingray’s 535 hp LS6 for $15,000 more than a Stingray at the same trim. A Liberty Walk kit at $19,580 and a full carbon Sigala kit at $24,995 both cost more than that at their last published prices, before paint. I ran the full numbers in Grand Sport vs Stingray.

🏁 OWNER TAKE

I have owned four C8s: a Stingray, two Z06s and the ZR1 I have now, so I have owned both the narrow body and Chevrolet’s wide body. If width is all you want, I would buy the factory wide body. The kits make sense when you want a shape Chevrolet does not sell, and you accept that the car becomes a project.

Every C8 widebody kit, one by one

Pandem (Rocket Bunny) C8 Aero

Pandem announced its C8 kit in 2020, and the first customer car, a black Stingray on air suspension, was shown that November. GReddy sells it in the U.S. for 2020 and newer C8 coupes. The complete kit is $8,000 in FRP: a front lip ($1,250), side skirts ($1,450), front over-fenders ($2,100), rear over-fenders ($2,100) and a rear wing ($1,450). Bought one at a time the parts total $8,350.

The over-fenders are listed as +40 mm front and +70 mm rear, about 1.6 and 2.8 inches. The listing does not say whether that is per side. It does say body cutting and inner fender sealing are required. It is also the kit on TheStradman’s C8 Stingray.

Liberty Walk

Liberty Walk released its C8 Stingray kit in January 2023. Per GM Authority’s report, the complete kit is a front bumper with an integrated splitter, side diffusers, a rear bumper, a rear wing and front and rear fender flares. It was priced at $19,580, or $21,780 in carbon fiber reinforced form. The wing alone was $4,400, or $6,600 in carbon. Unlike the Pandem parts list, it includes both bumpers. No width figure was published.

Sigala Designs C8RR

The C8RR is the most complete kit of the group. CorvetteBlogger covered the finished kit in July 2021: 32 pieces that replace every body panel except the doors, including a vented hood, widebody fenders and quarter panels, a rear diffuser built around a center quad exhaust, a roof and a three-piece high wing. It makes the car six inches (152 mm) wider. Pricing started at $14,995 in a fiberglass and carbon mix and $24,995 in full carbon. Parts were also sold singly, such as the hood at $1,970 and the high wing at $1,195.

Duraflex Grand Veloce

This is the cheapest way in. Duraflex, out of Fullerton, California, makes the Grand Veloce flares in hand-laid fiberglass with a riveted-on look. CorvetteBlogger listed them in March 2022 at $1,709 for the front panels and $1,709 for the rear, $3,418 for both ends, adding up to four inches (102 mm) of width. The car in that feature ran ADV.1 wheels in 20×9.5 front and 21×12 rear on air suspension, which tells you how much wheel it takes to fill the flares.

Streethunter Designs

TJ Hunt’s kit was designed by Jon Sibal with a GT3 race car look, and it was first shown as a rendering in February 2020. The design covers wider fenders, rear quarter panels, a rear diffuser, a race wing and nose pieces. TJ Hunt’s own car, a Torch Red Stingray, was finished in August 2021 with a carbon fiber wing, diffuser and front splitter. I could not confirm a current price or a width figure, so the table leaves both open.

Label Motorsports Vouno: the SEMA 2021 build

Label Motorsports is a shop in Ada, Michigan, owned by Andy Siradakis. Its widebody C8 program is called Vouno, from the Greek word for mountain. Label showed the first renderings in August 2020. The finished car took 17 months and was revealed at the 2021 SEMA Show in Las Vegas, in the Gentex Corporation booth. It was shown again at the 2022 Michigan International Auto Show in Grand Rapids.

What makes it different from every kit above is that you do not buy it in a box. Label builds the whole car. From the Vette Vues interview with Siradakis and Label’s own build pages, the SEMA car carried:

  • 29 carbon fiber pieces, finished in forged carbon: hand-cut chips laid over a woven carbon base.
  • Air struts that Label engineered for the car.
  • CEIKA big brakes with an integrated e-brake.
  • Brixton Forged wheels.
  • An all-titanium exhaust and a functional aero hood.
  • Clear taillights developed with Gentex, plus Alcantara interior trim.

Label has kept going since. Chassis number 3 was its first widebody C8 convertible, a 35-piece program with full carbon fiber replacement fenders and Brixton AS01 wheels, built for a client in Texas as one of an initial five builds. The Label pages I read give no price and no width figure. You commission a car through Label Motorsports directly.

Video: the Label Motorsports widebody C8 in 4K

Khoality Media filmed the Label car in 4K and published it as “One of a Kind Widebody C8 Built by Label.” This is the video the first version of this post was written around.

The widebody C8s at SEMA 2021

SEMA 2021 had widebody C8s all over the floor. Vette Vues walked the Las Vegas Convention Center and logged these:

  • Competition Carbon: three cars, in the Extreme Dimensions booth, an air suspension company’s booth, and the Toyo Tires walkway between the Central and South Halls.
  • Streethunter Designs: the Jon Sibal design from TJ Hunt.
  • Sigala Designs: the C8RR, with one car entered in SEMA’s Battle of the Builders.
  • Label Motorsports: the Vouno, in the Gentex booth.
  • Rocket Bunny: the Pandem kit.

What a widebody kit does to wheels, tires and ride height

The kit is the cheap part of the decision. Three things follow it.

  • Wheels and tires. A Stingray leaves the factory on 245/35ZR19 front and 305/30ZR20 rear tires. Put flares over that and the wheels sit inside the new fender line. Filling it takes wider, lower-offset wheels or spacers, and tires to match. GReddy lists wheel and tire specs for the Pandem kit as TBA, so fitment is on you and your wheel shop. Start with the stock C8 wheel sizes.
  • Ride height. The Label car, the Duraflex feature car and the first Pandem car all sit on air suspension. The look depends on getting the car low, and the extended splitters on these kits sit close to the road.
  • Cutting. Over-fender kits like Pandem need the body cut. Decide that before you order, not when the car is on the lift.
⚠️ HEADS UP

Two things from my own cars. Lowering my Z06 put the front lift out of its working range, so do not count on the factory lift to save a low splitter. And I broke a rear half shaft launching my Stingray. A much wider rear tire means more grip at launch on the same half shafts.

Frequently asked questions

What is the Label Motorsports widebody C8 Corvette?

It is a widebody C8 program called Vouno from Label Motorsports in Ada, Michigan. The first car took 17 months and was revealed at SEMA 2021 in the Gentex booth with 29 forged carbon fiber pieces, air struts, CEIKA brakes and Brixton Forged wheels. Label builds complete cars for clients instead of selling a boxed kit.

How much does a C8 Corvette widebody kit cost?

Published parts prices run from $1,709 per end for Duraflex fiberglass flares to $8,000 for the Pandem kit, $19,580 to $21,780 for Liberty Walk, and $14,995 to $24,995 for the Sigala Designs C8RR. Paint, bodywork, installation, wheels and tires are extra on every one of them.

How much wider is a widebody C8 Corvette?

Chevrolet’s factory wide body is 79.7 inches across, 3.6 inches wider than the 76.1 inch Stingray. Aftermarket kits vary. Sigala’s C8RR adds six inches, Duraflex’s Grand Veloce adds up to four, and Pandem’s over-fenders are listed at 40 mm front and 70 mm rear.

Do you have to cut the body to fit a C8 widebody kit?

For the Pandem kit, yes. The U.S. listing says body cutting and inner fender sealing are required. Sigala’s C8RR is described as replacing every body panel except the doors. Ask each maker what has to be cut before you order, because a cut fender cannot be put back.

Which C8 Corvettes come with a factory wide body?

The Z06, Grand Sport and ZR1 all use Chevrolet’s 79.7 inch wide body, against 76.1 inches for the Stingray. For 2027 the Grand Sport pairs that body with the Stingray’s 535 hp LS6 engine for $15,000 more than a Stingray at the same trim level.

What are the best-known widebody C8 Corvette builds?

Three of the best documented are Label Motorsports’ forged carbon Vouno from SEMA 2021, TJ Hunt’s Torch Red Stingray with the Streethunter Designs kit, and TheStradman’s Stingray with the Pandem kit. Competition Carbon also brought three widebody C8s to that same SEMA show.

How To Install Racing Sport Concepts Duck Tail Spoiler on the C8 Corvette

One of the most popular aftermarket mods for the C8 Corvette since it came out in 2020 is adding carbon fiber parts and aero.

If you didn’t get any carbon fiber or aero installed from the factory there are companies like Racing Sport Concepts that have designed high quality carbon fiber parts for the C8 Corvette (as well as Porsche, Lamborghini, & BMW).

One of the many high quality and unique carbon fiber parts for the C8 Corvette their “Ducktail” Rear Spoiler.

How to Fix C8 Corvette Squeaky or Squealing Brakes (VIDEO)

In this video from Rick Corvette Conti with Coughlin Chevrolet of Pataskala discusses how to fix squeaky or squealing C8 Corvette brakes with his service corvette technician Chuck Metts.

Chuck mentions Chevrolet wants them to put a copper grease on the brake pads to stop them from chattering in the calipers. It’s Permatex Copper anti seize lubricant and to put a thick layer on the brake pads.

Another option is upgrading your brakes to Girodisc brake rotors and Carbotech Brake pads as we did after ordering the parts from Paragon Performance. We have a Z51 3LT C8 Corvette the J55 brakes are bigger so you have to take the brake calipers off.

There is a bulletin with Chevrolet not a recall that they will fix this issue as long as the C8 Corvette is still under warranty.

Rick Corvette Conti Jumping a C8 Corvette?

In this video from Rick Corvette Conti on YouTube he shares the latest C8 Corvette news and has a date set for his C8 Corvette “Evil Knievel ” type of stunt jump which is December 19th, 2021.

C8 Corvette Plant Slowdowns

Rick mentions a lot of his C8 Corvettes for customers are just sitting at the Bowling Green, KY plant for over month that he thought he should of received by now.

C8 Corvette Z06 Pricing

Rick also shares his thoughts on the C8 Corvette Z06 Pricing YouTube videos and confirms its all speculation as he speculates the pricing will come out in January or February 2022 from Chevrolet and General Motors officially.

Heated Steering Wheel 

If you don’t get a heated steering wheel with any GM vehicle you get a $25.00 credit, 1 year free remote access plan, and they will retrofit your car when the part comes in since it’s been effected like many things with the supply chain and chip shortage.

Rick Corvette Conti C8 Corvette Jump

Rick Conti mentions he will be jumping his C8 Corvette Evil Knievel style with a full video production type video on December 19th, 2021. He will be sharing the video on his YouTube channel here and he has already completed the jump and has some slight injuries from that and also jumping over his car.

He mentions he messed up his C8 Corvette Convertible by jumping it but it is currently fixed already. It was a lot more damage then he expected and you will have to watch his YouTube channel Dec 19th to see the video of the C8 Corvette jump.

C8 CORVETTE JUMPS OVER ANOTHER C8

So here is the video of Rick Corvette Conti Jumping a C8 Corvette over another C8 Corvette. Real or Fake with good high production paid for editing? Leave your comment below.

He conveniently does the “jump” at night, in the rain, in a “private lot” that looks like a commercial building or school parking lot. You don’t see him land or go ramp to ramp and supposedly lands on asphalt but runs out of the car ok and the car flys down the concrete at 70MPH.

Unlike StreetSpeed717 where you clearly see him jump his lambo over his other lambo there is some fishy stuff going on here with Rick and looks more like a high production magic trick of the mind on some of his YouTube Commentors which also appear to fake? (a lot of comments from profiles with no pictures, videos on their page, about section blank ect..)

WHAT DID WE DO? EVEL KNIEVEL CORVETTE JUMP FOLLOW UP

Here is the follow up to the Rick Corvette Conti C8 Corvette jump that was fake and all for “entertainment” and “views”.  So if you enjoy fake car jump videos this one is for you! lol

Speed Phenom Selling C8.R Special Edition C8 Corvette for C8 Z06?

In this video, Speed Phenom on YouTube asks his viewers and audience if he should sell his C8 Corvette C8R Special Edition for the New C8 Z06.

In our mind this is a no brainer and being a YouTuber its a no brainer for him as well since he uses each car as content for his YouTube Channel.

We’re sure he already had this in mind when he flipped his C8 Corvette Stingray at Carmax for this “special edition” C8.R where they are only producing 1000 units.

Guaranteed the C8 Z06 with the flat plane crank engine will hold its value and still be more valuable than a special edition base model Z51 C8 Corvette with stickers regardless of only making 1000 units. 

He admits he’s not a “car collector” and only 21 years old so it sounds like C8R special edition was for content and he will be getting a C8 Z06.

What do you think? Keep a “Special Edition” C8.R or get a C8 Corvette Z06?

2023 C8 Z06 Corvette Pricing (LEAKED VIDEO)

Check out this video from Brink of Speed on YouTube where he leaks the 2023 C8 Z06 Corvette pricing starting at $88,000.

He supposedly has a Chevrolet C8 Corvette Z06 build sheet with all the pricing including Carbon Fiber Wheels at $11,000 and the Z07 package adding another $9,500.

UPDATED – someone in the comments is saying they made this up. With the internet nowadays you never know what is true, false, made up. As we discussed in past C8 z06 posts its all pure speculation until Chevrolet or General Motors officially announces it. 

c8 corvette comments

Also, if you want to go with the 3LZ option that’s another $11,950. You will see in this build its priced out to about $144,000 including $8k in Tax.

Some other interesting pricing shows the C8 Corvette Z06 Convertible starting at $95,500 or $106,995 in the 3LZ option before adding the Z07 package or any other carbon fiber add ons for the C8 Corvette Z06.

Interestingly enough this $88,000 starting price for the 2023 C8 Corvette Z06 is in line with the “CONFIRMED” by two Chevy Dealers pricing of $87,000 that HorsePower Obsessed leaked as well which is about $1k off.

MacMulkin Shares Two New Possible Colors for the C8 Corvette Z06

In this video from Fred’s Full Throttle on YouTube has an “Insider Info, 2 Little Nuggets” section where he says he was told by MacMulkin Chevrolet they heard there are two new colors being considered for release for the 2023 C8 Corvettes.

Fred recently put his deposit down with MacMulkin in another recent video so maybe they mentioned it to him then.

And those two new C8 Corvette colors are the most wanted, talked about, and speculated colors as we have covered before Green and Purple.

Recently, someone spotted a new Carbon Flash Metallic color and Pearl White color in the display case at the LA Auto show.

What do you think? Will the Green and Purple finally be added to the mix?

How to Lower C8 Corvette (VIDEO)

Back in June of 2020 months after the C8 Corvettes started rolling out to customers we created this post on How to Lower the C8 Corvette as people started with the aftermarket mods.

One of the biggest issues cosmetically with the C8 Corvette is the big wheel gap and horrible stock wheel choices. The black trident wheel is probably the best option but again the offset isn’t as good as it could be and still a massive wheel gap that doesn’t look good for a mid engine sports car.

Since the wheels and wheel gap are an issue the most popular mods are getting aftermarket wheels for the C8 Corvette and lowering the C8 Corvette with exhausts, bolt ons, and wrapping their C8 Corvettes being very popular as well.

In this video most recent 2021 video by Paragon Performance and aftermarket marketplace for C8 Corvette mods explains every option depending on you having a base model C8 Corvette with no lift and no Z51 option to having the front lift and Z51 C8 Corvette stingray.

They sell front collars, suspension kits, and springs to lower your C8 Corvette. If you go to their site and order anything mention you found them on C8CorvetteBlog.com in the notes or when you call.

C8 Corvette Z06 1/4 Mile 10.4 Seconds (VIDEO)

Check out this video by Brink of Speed on YouTube where he shares a video from a follower of his that recorded a Spokeswoman at the LA Auto Show announce a 10.4 1/4 Mile and 0 to 60 time of 2.6 seconds.

This is faster than the posted time on some recent expo signage as they been taking the New C8 Corvette Z06 cars on a road show to automotive events across the country including SEMA, Phoenix International Raceway, Road Atlanta and now the LA Auto Show.

This is for the Non Z07 package that has the bigger wing and aero which is a more track focused car vs a drag strip car where you wouldn’t want to have the big wing from the Z07 package and much rather have the more sleeker duck bill type spoiler that the base model or non Z07 package C8 Z06 has.
