Bought this lip from a forum member, couldn't pass up the price he was selling. He noted it had a few scratches, small cracks. Its cracked in one spot, I'll have to figure out a way to fix that, it is visible, but I can't complain. I was unsure of how the carbon fiber would look against white, but I'm very happy. Sorry for the crappy pics, I took them at night. The UPS guy slacks and always delivers my packages at 9:30. Took about 5 minutes to install.

I'll try to take better pics in the morning.

Next mod is probably gonna be a black or carbon fiber overlay on the roof.

That should look great against the white. Looking forward to some better pics!
