Looking for a bodykit part (FD3S).

I'm looking for the CF Part on the fender that's in these pics.

I found a few threads that are old, one about JKL making them too, but thats a no go, I can't seem to find it otherwise.

I know its the RE-Amemiya AD-GT kit, but I only want the CF fender vent thing.

I want to add this to the Feed Fenders I've got...
Any ideas?

Yikes, those aren't cheap!
Really wish JKL was still making these, he had them at half the price.
Add these to my ever growing list of things I need to save up for.

Will have to make sure they would work with the feed fenders before buying them too.

Thanks for the find tho!

I'm pretty sure those won't be a direct fit with the Feed fenders. The RE-Amemiya fenders have a larger "cutout" compared to the feed fenders.

Here are what the RE fenders look like without that carbon fiber addon:


And here's the FEED fenders:


^ similar, but not the same.

Hmmm... Good observation Tom. I see the diff, wonder if it matters tho...

Looking at how the diffusers are built it looks like it wouldn't make much of a difference.
It looks like it just sits on top of the fender at the top and the only part with depth is the small vent at the bottom.

I'd say just make your own or make a template and ask these guys to make them for you.

I might go talk to them in person since they're not too far from me.

I like the idea of that but I have no idea where I would start with that.

Get out the scrap cardboard and start playing with designs.

I'll have to try that. Not sure if I can make nice curves and make two exact copies, but worth a try.

The ADGT is way different than feed. The cutout by the fender is the fender itself on feed. On ADGT it's the side skirts.

To put these carbon fiber covers on the feed fenders, you'll have to chop that part of the fender off.

Or we could delete the part in the back of the fender add-on to make it smooth but still keeping the vent.

Let me know if you would like to try this way.

Otherwise I have the RE-GT front fenders available also.

Interesting.
You make these, so I can get back to you when I'm closer to needing them?

I think I understand what you mean. If I buy feed fenders they have that cutout as part of it. The RE Fender just stops where the cut out is.
I'm not 100% on how these addons are designed so Im not sure what has to be modified to make it fit, but if you do then thats all that matters.

Those are carbon fiber with a thin fiberglass layer in the back. Around 10 persons will receive their side sills this week so hopefully we will have some feedback. The side sills are made the same way as those add-ons.

I sincerely think the quality is very good.

I'd be interested if you made them for the FEED fenders.
