CSX2259 is an unusual car. It didn't have trunk bumps, and it had two configurations of front fenders
FIA-type front flares:


and standard(-ish) roadster front fenders, with fairing:


Does anybody know the story on why 2259 had different front fenders at different times? I'm assuming that it started out with the standard roadster fenders with fairings and then changed to the FIA front flares. As an FIA car, why was it different in this way?
Cheers,
