Finish in the closeup looks like crap. Way to high a price for a knock-off fiberglass piece. That main pic looks like they just found an Evo with the real Do-Luck lip on it in a back alley and took a quick pic.

Do you think that a REAL c/f lip would survive on a daily driven car? Something like this needs to be rugged. Why do you consider it overpriced for? You seen the price of the DoLuck lip? Do you know how long it takes to get one in? There have been only two people (that I'm aware of) posting about being unhappy about the lip.

I got mine Monday and I'm happy with mine....and I'm a very picky person to what I put on my car.

fiberglass lips suck. ABS plastic would be best if someone ever makes it

I would take a cf lip over fiberglass any day for my daily driver. Carbon is soooo much stronger (think jet/F1 monocoque). The DO luck lip is expensive because the quality is superb and it is real cf and it takes forever to get because they have to ship it straight from Japan. I dont think I would put any fiberglass piece on my car that is 4 inches from the ground, especially not one that is that damn expensive.

Well....I'd rather have this lip get screwed up than a $600 plus Do Luck lip anyday. I'll be putting mine on this weekend so I'll see first how sucky it fits.

In an earlier post you said you were "happy with mine". How can that be when you haven't even installed it yet? The bottom line is fittment! "If it doesn't fit you must...." oh, sorry, wrong case.

i wouldnt trust ebay items, i've heard to many horror stories. if you do buy anything off ebay i would see if its from a reputable dealer first. but on the topic the lip looks sorta shabby, i wouldnt put it on my car.

i have this lip but it was ordered from streetconcepts, the fittment was good but not excellent, the customer service was way better than any company i have yet to deal with, and the finish of the product was ok, there was a few imperfections in the weave and the clearcoat looks like it needs to be wetsanded or buffed a little. however for the money its a good peice and seing how it is a front lip and is probably going to get a few dings from rocks or scraping i am not too worred about having an incredible finish on the product. unless you really look up close you cant see any imperfection

**note i did not buy this from ebay i purchased it from streetconcept.com**
