U can find lips on Ebay or craigslist. Apparently the user on here Euro925 steals them and stores them in his garage too, u might wanna ask him lol.

There was a member a long time ago that mounted his on really good and it still ended up falling off. I think It's already happened to at least 2 people.

there are ways to mount the abs lips on securely. i hit a racoon and all it did was push it out of place, i just pulled it back up and it was fine. i did break the passenger siderear support tab off pulling out of an unfinished driveway last year. but luckily i have a buddy with a plastic welder and he's fixing it any day now. i have new plans for remounting it this year, but it's top secret atm. :p

plus the WW one limits foglight creativity

imo, just go with the WW lip, you can't go wrong with polyurethane.
