FEED Carbon Fiber Rear Underskirt
 
Hey guys, anyone running this piece on their car? I've searched everywhere for photos of this installed on a car with no luck. I know many people love the RE style diffusers but I'm considering something a bit less aggressive and it's available at all the popular JDM import sites for a reasonable price.

That's news to me, I didn't know they had that! I like how it looks, though, for sure.

looks great! never knew this existed, what's the price?

random unrelated question, as english is my second language I sometimes hesitate with the proper use of some words in this case "though"

does it rhyme with "tuff" or "dough"?

I’ve seen it for sale for a while now but haven’t managed to see it installed. My biggest question would be how it mounts to the bumper. Like, Will there be visible screws through those holes in the under skirt.

Just as an update... I still haven’t come across anyone who has this product, but I went ahead and ordered it anyway. From everything I can tell it looks like it is a direct replacement for the stock plastic trim/valance, except in carbon fiber. $720 including shipping from Japan, and in my experience these body panels are usually made to order. Once I get it installed I’ll report back with my findings. If it’s anything like the quality of the other authentic FEED products I’ve seen I will be very happy.

Another update... I received the parts from Nengun last week. The piece itself looks to be of very high quality. Unfortunately, Fedex damaged the package during shipping and the item arrived with a crack in the carbon fiber. The package is insured, but seriously disappointed that I might have to wait another 2 months for a new one. I might just see if I can get the damage repaired since it is minor. I'll update the thread when I finally get it installed.

Nengun doesn't list a part number but you can just do a search for "FEED rear under skirt." It is also sold through RHDJapan.

That damage does suck.

Lucky it is where it is though.
can put a titanium flame protector plate right there above the muffler tip and it will look cool and be functional.

I like that idea. I’ll look into it. Thanks man.

I looks just like the original rear valence but made or carbon instead of plastic..?

I'll check it out! I'm waiting for the installation so i can see how the fitment is. Anticipation is killing me!

It does replace the OEM plastic piece but is a bit different design.

You and me, both. My car is sitting in Japan right now waiting to get on a boat. It'll be a few more weeks until I have it here in California. Aero pieces will be the first thing to be installed. I've got the FEED side steps and also an RE Amemiya front lip for 99 spec bumper that also arrived.

Pics? Curious to see how well FEED and RE carbon weaves match.
