Anyone dealth with this lip before?

Has anyone bought this lip or dealt with this vendor? I know it's E-bay but I'm on a tight budget and I have NO front lip at moment not even the stock one.
This one looks decent just trying to see if there are drastic fitment issues that will cause a-lot of headaches, minor fitment issue I can deal with though.

And, as long as the bumper is actually Urethane, the price seems to be right. I have never heard of those people/that company, BUT even high end lips don't fit a good amount of the time. If you are going to have a body shop paint and install it, anyways, I would say go ahead.

i bought a similar P.U. lip last year for 130 picked up here in so.cal.

raw , un-finished , urethane molded lips should be under 200.

Says the guy who bought HKS spark plugs and shelled out the cash for an ARC IC. These lips will get the job done for a fraction of the brand name lips. If you only want the look and don't care about sporting the name, then it doesn't really matter with cosmetic stuff. I can't stand the "look at my X part, for it is ARC" garbage. My AGP setup is just fine, and I can tell you that I paid what you paid for your IC and got a UICP, LICP, IC, and CAI (all powdercoated black). They are just pipes. You can buy the raw materials for pennies on the dollar. If you want to support a certain fabricator, okay fine. I tend to support American manufacturers, but hey, that is my prerogative. With this lip, it is the same story. They get it done at a good price. Buy it.
