it is very ridgid in many spots and the "shiny black finish" is not shiny and not black in many spots. it is also warped and uneven in many places.
i will take it to my paint shop to see if they can smooth it out with some bondo.
i am in no way trying to kill their business. i just wanted to tell the truth.
the price was decent. if my body shop says it is repairable, i will most likely put it on. i just didn't think i needed to "repair" something i bought new.
i will post pics tomorrow.
pm me if you have an offer. (i may sell it)

There u go people - I wonder how the CF one's are going to be like
damn this sucks. maybe i should have waited before ordering one right away. hopefully i get a good one since i was one of the first to order. if not may have to send it back for a refund or something.
i was gonna order..but g....now i have to wait for more reviews.
im not sure if i got a HORRIBLE one or if all of them are like this but.....
i took my bumper off and no matter how hard i tried i couldn't get both sides of the lip to fit over my bumper. slip one side on and the other side slides off. so, i took off the lower portion of the bumper (much more flexible) off and i got both sides to fit.
talk about g a p s ! ! !
so, tomorrow im off to the body shop to see if they can bondo or add fiberglass to the top edge. I would like to see close up pictures of the top of the lip. cause mine is not clean.
I really hope that i don't sound like a little B l T C H. im just telling the truth so that other members don't get dissapointed like me.
I would LOVE to see a poly version of this lip.
I will no longer post on this thread. PM me if you would like info or you have an offer for the lip.

That sucks that yours didn't fit right. I'm still all about this lip and I hope and trust that they take thier time on making these things. I'm willing to wait a bit longer to get a nice looking lip that fits right. 
I thought this lip went over the stock lip. I was under the impression that it just bolted right over the existing one. Oh well...I'm ready for mine. Mine won't go on til I raise my car up. The S-Tech's would be the death of this lip for sure.

wow...that sucks about the quality issue...hopefully, this is an isolated incident....
I just think that its funny how the price has jumped up because of the demand, and now it might just plummet...
