ok here are the pics. if you look at it everything is brand new, i just took it out of the plastic today to take pictures of it. the plastic bags still have the part numbers on them and the vin plates still have the protective covering.

its not broken, the kit has been sitting for a while and the polyurethane just got used to it being fold in that position. if you look at the links there is a pic of the rear at a full angle. i ensure you it is mint condition

Polyurethane always bends like that... if left in that position for a long time it'll stay like that for a while. no worries, I've had that plenty of times!!!

i guess the big question is.....if polyurethan bends like that soooo easiy....how does it look when you bend it back to normal postion? Will there be a bend mark left on the lip kit? You say its mint....so i assume there is no bend mark. Im thinking ppl need to see pics b4 and after bent area.

there are already pictures of the complete parts. like i said, there is no damage. anyone who has dealt with polyurethane will know how it works, the material is made to bend, and when a uv protection protection, in this case, paint and clearcoat is applied it will protect the material. from any warpage or damage, if it were that sensitive then parts wouldnt be made, wouldnt be so expensive, and wouldnt be used as oem material for lexus toyota etc. the reason i prefer a local deal is so you can see the product and be sure to be satisfied before you pick it up, obviosly you wouldnt just take the parts face to face with me sight unseen. if your that concerned about this material and quality, i suggest you move onto another kit. try out a fiberglass copy from a company which wont let you see the kit beofre you order it. the same fiberglass that is nor flexible nor durable. good luck otherwise
