Just for anyone looking, the ORANGE FD isnt sporting those parts. That FD has what looks to be PANSPEED rear fender flares (like mine) and cut and slightly pulled ORIGINAL fron fenders.

The real flares are on the website. However they are not installed on the Orange FD as pointed out by JT. They look good but have only seen pics in magazines. Try looking/searching the internet for the last D1 drift race at Irwindale speedway. So far, I think that would be your best bet until these become more popular.

who all carries or can get M-Sports body parts? I've been looking around for them and I know the store has them, but they don't advertise all the parts on the Msports webiste like the fender flares, canards, and undersweep.

Well, in short, yes. Heh everything ( for any car), we can get over 400 manufacturers from Japan (NO OEM/factory stuff though .... yet). We have a warehouse there, full time employee and ship a container a month. I try to stay away from the US based and sourced items. A lot of the manufacturers though don't have much to offer in the way of discounts ( Knightsports, RE Amemiya, AutoExe, etc)

PM or email me or Jason with whatever you are looking for, I'm sure we can get it

On this fenders by Ms, they are marketed by I would say 20 or so companies here right now, and no one says its anyone elses parts. This is common for what I like to call DRIFT parts, since it usually is a sign of a very small company selling several parts to make a quick buck and then go under....

Not saying the parts are cheap made or anything in anyway... Just that the background or the originality cant really be found...

If you looked in our ORIGINAL parts section you would see if haha, its been there for quite sometime, but we didnt have a name to place with it so it was made as our own.

How about the Border widebody kit? I know its fairly new and it was called their Border Widebody Prototype on the white Border Racing FD when it was finished, but I didn't ever hear if it was up for production and sale yet.

Look at the doubble venting on the front fenders of this black FD......Id say they are the same as the ones in that add at the top of this page for M-sport.....Look at the white ones on that add and check the black Fd....My vote..(same fenders). The back ones on the other hand I have no idea.

I believe those fenders and flares are the same for both companies.

Jason, that's the one I was talking about. Is it available for purchase? I haven't found it advertised on any sites yet.
