Need a good widebody kit that will stand the test of time but not break the bank

Dodge is selling its own kit.
If you just want the looks, go with Vicrez.
If you want it to look and perform like the OEM:

-OEM widebody kit: 2015-2022 Dodge Challenger Challenger Widebody Fender Flare Kit 77072552AC | Direct Connection
-OEM Hellcat front fascia: 2015-2021 Dodge Challenger Challenger SRT® Hellcat Front Fascia Kit 77072556AC | Direct Connection
-4 big fat wheels
-4 big fat tires
-You'll still need some fabrication on the rear panels
-You'll still need to paint

Another important thing is that ALL widebodies come with the electronically adjustable Billstein suspension.
If your Chally doesn't have that already, that's an expensive upgrade to do.
If you already have that, great, I think it only needs some minor pre-tension adjustment to set the car on proper ride height.

I know you probably want it for the fender flare look but if it just for bigger tires I'm running 305 rears on my standard body with 20x10.5 rims same width tire as on a factory wide body

And yours looks damn good too with all meat out back.

Your car looks fantastic. If you‘re going to bother converting anything, gotta do it right or it ends up looking like a clown show. Congrats on doing it right.

I had the oem splash guards before the WB kit from Steve White, they worked pretty well and were molded.

yeah that's what I have in the pic above a few posts back... they leave a lot to be desired with 305's looks like. maybe I'll take em off and do PPF

Welcome to the forum PrinceM
Listen to our experience members posting with great advice above.

Personally I would trade in my car and buy one already from the factory if I wanted a widebody car(n)

Definitely don't want my car looking like

the funny part about that pic besides people wearing masks (at all but especially in cars) is the tires on that challenger are no wider than that Ford Edge and merc grand marquis.

Are these the wheels you have (as in your avatar)?

They do not make a wider reproduction of that design and there were not wider factory versions made either

It's more than just flares and wheels! You get what you pay for if you buy a WB:
