There isn't one. Maybe you've seen the Abflug carbon fiber front lip. It kinida looks similar to the TTE but it's waaaay $$$ and it's also discontinued now.

Yea i'm pretty sure you looked at the Abflug. That is going to be really hard to find now a days. Might aswell just get the TTE and maybe paint it like a graphite color?

Nobody makes a TTE in CF. Only one is the AbFlug diffuser. I only know of 3 guys in the US that have one. Heres mine. It is actually quite different from the TTE.

Not to trying to ressurect this thread but I've been looking for this lip and the screens on l-tuned parts site look nothing like that lip. So my question is: Is the "Front Half Spoiler" listed on their site actually a different lip than the one shown in this thread?

I'd rather pay $900 for a front lip that maybe 10 people have than buy a TTE lip for $600+ that maybe 80% of people here have.
