sorry about that guys, I forgot to mention mine was painted sebring silver in color, but was made out of carbon fiber, so let me know if anyone interest in it, thanks.
glad you got that cleared up If I was a buyer and came all the way to San Fran to see you..expected to see a CF lip and actually see a painted lip I would have burnt your house down.

yea, it's lighter. but can't tell just by the look because it's painted, but the same thing as the oem front lip. for me, i just don't really like the cf matching with my car's color which is sebring silver because I think the cf lip looks ghetto/downgrade on my car, and for me it doesnt look clean at all( no offense to other people, just my .02 cent). I just like a clean look.

....at first we got a shit talking fool and now a smartass don't know what the hell he's talking about. Any carbon fiber parts could be painted and still look good. For your info, the roof of BMW E46 M3 CSL are made out of 5 layers of carbon fiber composite. And yes the roof are painted. Anyway check your PM, i want to check out the lip.

LOL. This lip is a CF lip painted Sebring right? Apparently turbofire didn't like the CF clashing with Sebring so he painted it to match.

So this dude asked if you can still tell that the lip is CF even though it's painted. And I was just saying what a shitty paint job it would be if he didn't like the CF look, paid to get it painted, and yet could still see the CF.

There's 2 mins of my life I'll never get back...
