Where can I get one? Saw a few replicas online but not sure about the fit and quality. Has anyone got a replica Breyton front lip spoiler, if so, how does it look/fit?

I just cant seem to find the real deal online (shipping to Canada).

Tints, 172s, black grills (maybe) and a front bumper facelift are planned for this spring!

Cheers

Authentic ones are hard to come by. I snagged an authentic one up from ebay a few weeks ago for $650. I know VIS makes a replica but I dont know about the fitment quality. I also waited a month for a rep from VIS but it never came in.

Id best advised you to get a hold of the authentic one if possible...reason being is that its made of a flexible polyeurethane like material. So in those cases which u scrap and hit things on the road, it wont crack on you.....


hope it helps....

Thanks, that's helpful feedback! I'm not a fan of replicas when it comes to wheels and body kits - not for E60's at least.

Can you recall how much it cost to paint and install? Is it a simple install?

Car looks sharp...I have the same colour.
