So, I was in the market for an OEM Ap2 front lip when I decided I would search around on Ebay for a replica that actually fits. I had some extra money that I didn't mind losing $100 if it didn't fit. So here's the review thus far:

Seller Name: slipstreamautoworks
Price: $99.99 free shipping
Transit Time: 4 FULL business days (from California to South Carolina)
Condition Upon Arrival: Excellent (no bending, etc.)
Fitment (thus far): Immediately took it out of the wrapper and took it out to the car. The fitment for a replica front lip out of the box couldn't have been any better. It firmly hugged the bumper with no hardware attached. It wasn't too short or too long on either side. The lip appears very symmetrical thus far.

I have taken a few pics including packaging and quick test fit. I will upload those later today as I'm out running errands at the moment. I will keep everyone updated with the end result/fitment along the way of paint, install, hardware, etc. I figured there were A LOT of people looking for a replica so I think this will help out; Not to mention repeated threads asking the same thing

Keep in mind these pictures were taken literally 5 minutes upon delivery and NO hardware was securing the lip to the bumper. I will post more pics when I get the lip back from paint.
your lip seem to have better fitment compared to mine.

i bought mine from supremepowerseller, lip came in a big box but was a bit warped had to heat it to bend it back.

i paid 90 for the lip shipped + 20 for the paint $4 for clear coat + 5 bucks for homedepot rubber gasket for the lip. after i applied the weather seal, the lip had a much better finish and fitment now. 1 day of my time.

the paint looks very off in the picture, but its actually very close in person. i think the angle and lighting has some effect. under the sun its a pretty close match. i've sealed up the gaps between the lip and the bumper now with some home depot rubber gurd thing. pretty good for 130 bucks project. that i wouldnt care if it chip or breaks lol.

If the boot is cheap, odds are its done kind of microfiber or ultra suede
Doesn't look like it fits oem style though
Boot looks ok but ebrake looks like a funny fitment

chk moddictions stuff.

Cool, thanks for the heads up! I think I'll just stick with the old cable tie under the boot trick to keep it flush.

Warranty on eBay doesn't really mean anything. They will usually warranty your product until you leave them feedback or until you cannot leave feedback with is 60 days after purchase so be careful, but they look pretty good
