I like it except that it's made of fiberglass. I don't want to spend my money on something that breaks. I heard cf isn't that strong either...

That depends on how you define "strong". CF is very strong, especially for it's weight. It is however, quite brittle.

it comes in either fiberglass or CF though. Accolade has a lip as well. Street concepts has the same looking lip as RRM in CF or fiberglass too.

i heared that RRM uses the streetconcept mold to make the lips. ACCOLADE had a sale on the lips last month for 165 shipped. with RRM lip u can get away without getting it painted eventhough if its fiber glass.

RRM lip has to be the best choice IMO , good support , quality product , and as for strength the CF lip is strong enough, just don't hit anything or install it improperly and it will not break(I GUARRANTEE IT )........

yeah rrms and street concepts is the same but i think rrm is cheaper. The fiberglass comes black and wouldn't need to be painted if you think it looks good black, or cf. RRM has customer service as well.

RRM lip is a bit higher than the streetconcept one. and that quality seems better...i have the streetconcept one....man....fitment was bad and it was only 3 screws total to hold the lip and if u scrape the lip, it will scratch ur bumper too...sooo yeah...

from what i've seen the RRM lip matches the lines of the stock side skirts the best. I think its only like a 1/2 to inch lower (not really noticable) go with RRM. Best costomer service department i've talked to thus far

How many styles you looking for? 5?

About the lip scraping, use a thin strip of double sided foam tape between your lip/bumper to prevent scratching.

Just to make you mad because some of these look good but are only available overseas. Someone just put these in another thread so I'm stealing them.
