Luxurymods: You said quote "The best we can do is get you a replacement at cost."
Which means not at "your" cost but how much it's going for (retail value)
Get your facts straight bud

Obviously you don't understand the English language and can't distinguish the difference between "our cost" (which you stated) & "at cost"
There's a big difference........

Tony and Luxurymods have helped build my car for the past 5 years so it is obviously not a shady Mickey Mouse operation.
You can not blame a vendor or a manufacturer for accidental damages, whether you hit a rock or someone stomped on it.
If you scrape your car over a dip, can you take the car back to Lexus? No
If you drop your cell phone into the toilet, can you take it back to Verizon and get it replaced under warranty at no charge? No
Moreover, Whether it is urethane or fiberglass or frp is also irrelevent. The paint will crack after a certain point. Welcome to the car world. Stuff happens man. I repainted my car twice over stupid stuff happening. If you cannot handle the stress or hassle, then this might not be a hobby for you.

Dude, calm down. Unless you bought a replica part and it was stated to be real, then there wouldn't be a reason to get mad. You can't blame a vendor for a cracked lip, unless it arrived to you that way. A while back I bought new tires, and hit a curb. The tires bubbled, who was a fault? The person who sold it to me, or me, for being careless? I doubt your lip cracked from a small rock. Take responsibility for your actions bro.

OP either way as chris said you DEF need to calm down. you arent dealing with tony appropriately, yelling/cussing at him and calling him names wouldnt make me wanna do anything for you (if i was him) ESPECIALLY something he doesnt owe you as he fulfilled his part of the deal and shipped you a lip that got there undamaged. its 100% not his fault a month later its damaged
that's seriously not helping man, you dont know all the circumstances (nor do i think he is telling them all to us) but you dont if know the OP really did it by driving, it is possible someone drinking some haterade did it,your just adding fuel to the OP's already increasing fire (either way your right he's pushing the blame on the wrong person)
HOW BOUT A PIC BTW OP OF THE DAMAGED LIP AND YOUR FRONT BUMPER?

I had a Greddy lip before and have hit multiple objects with it, large and small. However, I've also met a few people that had the same Greddy lip hit a squirrel or small road debris and the lip would literally explode from the impact.
If you're handy you can definitely fix it using plastic weld. There are multiple reputable companies out there that provide kits that can help you repair your lip.

NOTHING is indestructible.....and you and OP can think whatever you want but this ISNT tony's fault. he shipped it to the guy, it got there undamaged, a month later under some mysterious actions(and i would say incomplete details) it is now cracked. HOW is this tony's fault,he didnt come to the guys house and crack it. tony is a standup guy stop,stop feeding fuel to the OP and trying to blame LM for this
according to this guy the tire shop would have been.
x2, im thinking there is more to this story he just isnt telling us....i have seen a greddy split but it wasnt from some tiny little rock.

He is offering to replace something you messed up at a heavily discounted price. Other places would laugh at you and tell you to buy a new one at full price. Tony is being more than fair with you. LuxuryMods only sells high quality authentic parts, not junk.
If there is a company that has an unconditional lifetime warranty on aero parts, sign me up.
