Like $750. Someone dm’d me on insta soliciting a BNIB lip for $1500. This is getting stupid lol. I know the seibon lip fits well and I can get one for like $450 if these poly ones are a bust. I’ve never spent money on an oem lip but I’ve spent crazy money elsewhere. To me they’re a wear item.

Glad you were able to get one

Here's the RSG Gears lip in black. My body shop guy said it was pretty decent quality but needed that weatherstripping to fit right, and it was a pain in the ass to paint. He had to paint it twice. Whatever mold release was on there wouldn't come off easily, but he said that's common with fiberglass or plastic body pieces.

Price is definitely more than OEM/BaysonR, and look is a bit more aggressive from the side.

I almost did the RSG lip but fitment is the biggest issue for me when it comes to this stuff. I'm incredibly meticulous about the car and attention to detail is important to me. So I bit the bullet and paid $750 for another OEM, at least it's factory painted my body color, so bonus there. I thought about the seibon as well @S2kys but painted carbon is a bitch.

I bought one oem lip from Simon @ Hendy Motorsports in the UK. They are very expensive however they come with all the OEM hardware and fit like a glove. They told me that they only had two. A year later I found out they have sold a number of them. I do not know how many are left but I do not have any buyers remorse. The AP1 lip compliments the bumper so well.

We have the same car
Yes the lip does compliment our AP1 bumper so well. Maybe its just the pics but your lip looks larger than the others above...? Or maybe it's just me lol. Either way I'd like that one for my car
