Default AP2 "style" OEM lip

Hello,

First, i understand the quality and fitments is not going to be OEM, I just want to know from other s2ki users if they own this replica lip and the fitments.

how bad is the fitments?

Replica Lip

thank you

UPDATE:

so i pulled trigger and i bought the "ebay" lip, here is a few pictures

This is how it comes pack, shipping was fast.



White plastic was remove.







Hardware included with the lip.



So far is good, no cracks or anything, i will prep the lip to get it ready for paint.

************* UPDATE

so to prep and to paint the lip with life time warranty on the paint was $85, and here is the results. The car is at the shop, i will update once the lip is installed








Sorry for the bad quality pics. I'm very happy with the results

looks good and price is good but of course there is the tradeoff between quality and cost...

Damn for $160 still seems like alot for a ebay piece. Never understood why the Ebay AP1 lip is so cheap and this one is so expensive.

dont buy it..... i had a friend who bought that same lip from ebay and had fitment issues. Fitment issues where there is a gap between the lip and where the car meets. Maybe yours will fit better, i dunno but u get what u pay for in terms of price...

My advice, just pay the extra to get a OEM lip.

I could be wrong, but I believe I heard these replica lips do not have a gasket around the edge like the genuine OEM lip. With out the gasket I don't think it will fit flush.

I do recall seeing the spoiler selling at a lower price/cheaper shipping rate though, but I don't remember where I saw it.
