I hate to break it to you but the black car doesn't have FEED fenders and 1/4 panel. Those fenders were probably made by some small Japanese company and sold to WISESPORTS, MSPORTS and several others. Those are in no way FEED fenders.
Here is some proof...

Do you think that the blue FD's fenders aren't genuine? I only know of one company that makes replicas...Rotary Extreme. It doesn't seem logical, at least to me, to import U.S. stuff into Japan. Go figure.

Did anyone else notice the difference from the first blue car to Nameless' car? The Feed sides on Nameless' car have a flat edge to them (as I've seen in the pictures of the Feed fenders in the past) while the blue one doesn't have that edge.
I'm looking into the fenders myself as they add an additional .5-.8" clearance which I need. However, that flat edge has been the part which has turned me off those fenders in the past.
Nameless' isn't there a duct behind the fender that runs to the side stock grill/vent? What happens with that on the Feed fender?

Good Observation Majik. You can see that both cars have that flat edge on the rear. Looks almost as if the blue car had it pulled out maybe? Looks pretty mean! You'll notice this car on Chuck's website also has those flat edges:
I would go with either the explanation that they had them pulled out or shaped like that somehow or perhaps there's some other replica around japan. Also makes me wonder why the guy wouldn't do it on the back as well.
