The Coupe GT has the same fenders as the 4000.  Perhaps you're thinking
of the flared Ur-Quattro fenders?

I don't have any pointers to add-ons, but the UrQ fenders will no doubt
be fairly expensive and cost a lot.  The front fenders will bolt-on
except that it won't line up with the stock 4K's rocker panel, so it
will require mods.  The rear flare will be more of a problem.  It will
have to be grafted onto the 4K's body and then the rear door's seam
will have to be custom cut.  That will be very labor-intensive and expensive
too.  This sort of mod has been done.  Check out the "California Quattro"
article on my site:
