Shine VS Feed AFLUX front fender Fitment?

I am debating between the following fenders, If I am paying this kind of money I would very much like minimal fitment issues.
Can anyone tell me about the fitment of either of these fender sets?;

http://www.fujitaengineeringusa.com/fc3s/1a.jpg= $954 USD
https://www.vividracing.com/catalog/...150743773.html = $375 USD (they assure me they are Feed)

FC3S RX-7 Misc. Items | Shine Auto Project = $325 USD


If you have experience with one, or both your input WRT fitment issues, or rework to get them to fit properly, filling block sanding... etc.

Thanks

It doesn't matter how expensive the parts are, all aero will require some fitment due to variances with each vehicle. Shine is known for quality replicas and with the lower price point, I'd swing that way.

Thank you for your input; but the question is if you have had experience with either of the above?

I am well aware that any part OEM or not will require adjustment.. that was not really what I was looking for. I am looking for best quality fitment, and minimal reworking of the parts.

I believe Ashley (largeorangefont) said his shine fenders fit pretty well, they just needed some ovaling of some holes.

Ok, I asked for a quotation for the feed fenders with shipping... well they are cheap enough on the website, but shipping is 3.5x the cost of the product!

So I guess shine is likely going to be the route I will go.

However would still like to hear some first hand knowledge for fitment!

The shine front bumper and fenders I test fitted fit absolutely perfect.

ok thanks a lot. Feed shipping is worth more than the fenders themselves. So to hear fitment was perfect on the shine fenders makes the decision that much more of a no-brainer!
