It looks like the pic the op posted may be a little skewed.

Rear wheel well on yours does look rather wide.

Right? I'm trying to figure out why, I looked for modifications and everything seems stock.

OP's car has custom fender flares.

The steel body on the factory OEM 5.0 R-spec is no different than the 4.6 or 3.8. The R-spec has 19" wheels (vs. 18" on the 4.6) to accommodate the slightly larger front calipers, and the suspension is 1/4"-1/2" lower and stiffer from the factory.

If the car has modified fenders then the rear doors would also have been modified.

Where did you buy it from? I follow a shop on Instagram from Northern California that put fender flares on a silver RSPEC. I saved the pic back in 2016 cause I wanted flared fenders lol
