That looks awesome. Gongrats, but does the shipping seem a bit high (on the eBay lip) or is it me?

As for the high shipping cost, Ebay charges a percentage of what the item sells for. They do not charge based on shipping costs. So most sellers that want to avoid being raped by Ebay's fees will drop the price of the item and jack up their shipping so they still make out ok. I see this question brought up a lot so figured I would try and explain it. The point in the matter is to just look at the total cost which is $325 shipped. I've yet to see a carbon fiber lip of such great quality go for anywhere close to that.

Good point, that explains the rediculous shipping costs of most ebay items.

I bought one of these and put it on today as well. Mine had a few small gaps but those were mostly my fault when I was installing. They are hardly noticeable though and I don't think they will bother me. My only complaint is the holes for the undertray are too small, I'll need to drill them out or something to be able to put my undertray back on. Otherwise I'm very pleased with the product.

Lip looks very nice, quality looks good for an ebay item, but i wouldnt even pay $125.00 to have a car shipped across the USA let alone a 1.2 pound CF lip... If you are going to do that crap, just make it $325.00 FREE SHIPPING.

to those who bought it and like it though, maybe some day i will have money for looks....

I got ya, sorry for not reading in full. I am one that also refuses to use paypal, infact i dont even look on ebay anymore after the crap they did to me a year ago involving to sony PSPs


What makes them more special than others though? i mean if we have to pay listing fees, and paypal fees others shouldnt dodge it then.. thats why they put them there now...


I wouldnt mind getting a IX lip
