REDS2K - I was assuming so much, thanks for the heads up for the people on the forum, but i got Eibach Pro from a dealer
/ 
defiantly going straight to coil overs in the future.theGRNapples - Yea man but what do you expect? If i baught CF lip for 150 flat it would be with a good conscious of knowing it probably not legit CF and/or its not gunna fit nice. Most places are 375+ for a lip (and many places will charge you for shipping), and sometimes depending where you're looking, thats just the going right for the Fiber Glass lip... Even buying that lip for 300 on ebay, i doubt it will be real CF. But hey i wouldnt pay up to 500+ for CF one if i didnt buy it off Ebay either, the "weight" aspect to putting on a lip is just garbage, and im gunna paint the thing anyway, so its watever, im more concerned about it fitting nice, which our last review from the guy has!
Once i end up making some more money, i will most likely buy one of their bumpers...
EDIT:
Looked a little into the Baysnr on ebay, probably gunna buy this tommrow...

to all of you that are looking for AP2 OE style front lip in urethane, please do not buy from the seller slipstreamautoworks
you can see his auction here
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/NEW-04-09-H...982373415803363
he has not been responsive to all the messages and emails I've sent him after I paid for the item and he has been putting up new auctions during this period. What's even worse is that his contact number is either fake or out dated.
I've already contacted ebay and will update the situation if he finally ships the item or if there are any updates...

Hey, everyone. I just wanted to pass along some feedback about two eBay vendors.
The first item is a JDM clear side markers. You can see the relist here:
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...em=300423467126
The vendor “neondials” was quick enough – I ordered these last Friday and got them today via the US Mail, a week later. There was no tracking number, so that’s a little irritating, but oh well. For $20 shipped you get what you pay for. I have two main gripes about this style marker – first was that there is that glossy silver paint on the plastic housing, and second that the housing does not sit as flush to the body as the OEMs. I popped it on real quick and stepped back, promptly popping it back off and deciding to do something about it. I masked the lens, took fine grain sandpaper to the silver painted area and then went to town with a Sharpie. More acceptable. I did the same on the lower half of the orange bulbs (no sandpaper, lol). As soon as I can, I’ll post pics.
My second item I bought this week was an Alpine HU. Everyone knows about Alpine, so I’ll talk instead about the vendor of ‘Best Buy Outlet’, a subsidiary of Best Buy:
http://myworld.ebay.com/best_buy_outlet
The units are generally inspected and they’re straightforward about what you get with the purchase. Again, I ordered (won) this last Friday, and got it a week later via UPS. I’ve already gotten my Modifry (those guys really rock, since I ordered that at the same time!) and this weekend will be an install weekend for me, weather permitting.
Any questions, drop me a line.

$300 bumpers...What you people think?? http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/00-09-S2000...=item2c5203b9b1
I really wana pull the trigger on that...
So with that said, that bumper your looking at is recently made by VIS I say go for it. If it an old stock from a year ago then, I'll think twice. But you have a good chance you'll get a good fitting bumper. Plus most fiber glass bumpers including the real jdm ones sometimes need some fitment work too.
I wish you were in So. Cal, I would of just say "hit me up," I can get good deal from VIS

Well IMHO, VIS bumpers has been a lot better now-a-days. I got a CF Spoon Style hood from them and I literally just slapped it on and it fit just fine I didn't even have to adjust the hinges. Also I got a CF Spoon style GT wing from VIS, if you put the real one next to the VIS copy there is barely any difference. The cf weave is super nice
