like most things people do to cars, some just like how they look. They also help keep more stuff from going down the rear bumper when your wheels are not tucked in the wheel well.
Understandable 100% and agreed, just thought it might serve aero function.
There's a federal law on where fenders to the edge of the tire distance wise is. This gets around it as it "widens" the fender.
Ahhh yes the good old fashioned party pooper laws, just like Ocean City, Maryland during H2Oi. Where your camber gets measured and your car gets a full inspection if you're pulled over. I remember one year I went in my e36 M3 and made sure to have an alignment sheet showing I was within factory spec range with -1.5 camber in the rear.
Honestly the Japanese fender molding looks ugly, pointless, and out of place. If anything makes the car slightly less aerodynamic creating miniscual drag. But I guess some people don't care and just want JDM.
Is there any pics of the RCF flares installed on GSF ?

I realize this is a couple years old but wanted to include this for future reference as this thread gave me the idea. A few photos of my install are here: The split is slightly different but barely noticeable once installed:
