Keith:
Please cc me any info you came up with, as I'm doing the same project.
The lead I got was to check out the Corvette web sites. I had the name
of the product at one time, but can't put my hands on it immediately.
One suggestion I would give is to temporarily mount the fenders on the
car as early as possible, particularly during storage, as the fiberglass
takes a "set" and if the fenders are stored flat you will be fighting
with them.
I have the front fenders installed in place of the originals with just a
couple of bolts into the top flange. The rear fenders are screwed on
top of the original fenders with a couple of long sheet metal screws
through the upper area. The car looks bitchin sitting there in the
corner where it waits till I get to it, and the fenders are assuming the
shapes they will need with the help of gravity. Over time the fit is
getting much better with the warping due to being boxed smoothing out.
