Front Lip Spoiler Help.

So I want the more agressive look that the front lip spoiler brings with it. I', just having trouble locating one. I like the apsep but its expensive. So here is my question....Is one of those plastic lips you can find on ebay the same thing that you just have to paint? or is it not the same look. I cant tell because they dont show a picture with the part on the car.

Ex.

I cant tell if it look like the apec or not. Help me here cus I really want to do the lip spoiler but I dont want to order a peace of crap.

save your money and get the real aspec lip... you will spend almost 100 for this one.. then you may need to spend 100 or so to get it painted to match your car...

the front aspec lip alone should run you low 200's...

What you have to understand is that the aspec comes color matched if you buy somethind different you are going to have to get it painted which still might cost as much or more than the whole aspec kit.

A-spec all the way...the fitment will be perfect as well as the color. Another bonus is once you get it in the mail, you can go outside and put it on, no waiting for painting or anything.
