Can you recall how much it cost to paint and install? Is it a simple install?
Car looks sharp...I have the same colour.

it cost me about $250 for paint and install. its a fairly simple install for the body shop. they just have to take out the black plastic grills on the stock bumper, glue it on (this is how Breyton and some other German tuners install this stuff [what i was told by my body shop] so don't use any screws to mount it), let it set, and put the stock grills back on.
was that including shipping because the other to sellers are charging $80. either way you still got a good deal bro.
evosport sells it for $1000+

To my door I paid $700 shipped for my Breyton lip
Even the authentic one had a wee bit of stress build up on it when they fitted it. They reinforced that area and the fit is overall excellent.

yeah, i came back to my surprise to find it sold for that much. i thought it wouldn't sell but it did. still pretty good deal for the fact that it's brand new authentic for a 3rd of the price, assuming it's repairable.
i'm surprised you didn't go m-tech after spending that much on the lip, paint and install.

everyone goes mtech, plus the kit is $1400 but factor in another $1300 plus install for a good paint job.
even my wheels you rarely see on a e60. I just wanted to be different and I was willing to pay a bit for it
