are there any carbon lips prices in the $200 to $300 dollar range? after my last carbon fiber lip from JDP, i refuse to spend an outrageous amount on one of them again, the build was just ok, and the fitment was ahhhhh. after the first few days it started getting yellow spots under the clear coat. for the price i believe it was around $500 or more, i would never waste money with that peticular company again. Oh not to mention i slighty tapped a concrete parking stone and its shattered.....

Ill be the first Rob! Although you already know where I got mine from lol.
1. Which lip you have experience installing. Bayson R Motorsports,Do luck evo 8 lip
2. Whether or not any modification or drilling was required. Nope
3. How it actually fit. 1-5 star rating. Ill give it a 4.7, almost perfect, just some very minor gaps in a few spots. No biggie.
4. Lip build quality. Excellent
5. Where you bought it, with a link. Pointless since its ebay. Just look for Bayson R Motorsports, then search for evo lip.
6. And of course a pic of it installed.

Same issue with my Seibon lip
I've been searching for confirmed carbon fiber lip fitments and didn't really find much. I could only assume that each manufacturer has some sort of mold they make these with. I just tried installing my Do Luck style SEIBON carbon fiber lip and it doesn't even come close to fitting. It's a minimum of 1 inch too short. There is no physical way this lip will fit even with modification.
With that being said, I think it would be beneficial to those interested in purchasing carbon fiber lips to find a thread like this that could contain a buying guide of sorts.
I'm not sure the best way to set this thread up, but maybe something like this:
1. Which lip you have experience installing.
2. Whether or not any modification or drilling was required.
3. How it actually fit. 1-5 star rating.
4. Lip build quality.
5. Where you bought it, with a link.
6. And of course a pic of it installed.
I'm looking forward to some good posts in here to help me make the right choice when I buy a new lip after I return this SEIBON pos. Thanks guys.

I'm surprised your Rexpeed lip fit perfect. Mine was quite a bit off but I managed to muscle it on. Funny thing is, I ordered a ton of rexpeed parts during a group buy here on EvoM and literally nothing fit perfectly. The best fitting thing was the lip, but my spark plug cover, timing cover, and rear CF bumper guard all fit terribly.
