I have a question for you Alex. Does the front reinforcement bar need to be remove to install the spoon sport front bumper? I know the rear reinforcement bar need to be removed to install the rear bumper, like the mugen rear bumper.

No the front bumper support does not need to be taken off. I highly suggest not taking off. I did to save weight but lost some chassis ridgidity so I put it back on. Getting it back on is a pain because the bolt holes won't line up right perfect again because the chassis flexed a bit when driving without.

What fenders are those? Obviously I would imagine Spoon but I haven't seem them before.

Yup those are spoon. My sig shows the same fenders but the black color hides the lines.

What's the different from the standard RE30

I don't think there is a difference except for color. Like the regamasters the only difference was the offset and signature color. I think the draw back for spoon will be the fact that not a lot of people new about the desmond regamasters before spoon put their name on it, so it became popular. These new rims already are known as RE30s so more people will criticize the marketing scheme.
