So, is this the source of the urethane lip:

Would like to see pictures of one of these installed. The argument for real vs replica is BS when the company no longer makes them and gouged you on the price originally.
In my miata days, Mazda charged $375 for the same type of lip that could easily be duplicated with Home Depot garden border stripping. I'll take the $11 Home Depot job that looks IDENTICAL to OEM any day of the week if you are going to charge me $375 for a piece of bolt-on plastic. Check the BMW forums, and you will see people are doing the same thing there.
You might have an argument if we are talking about those who buy 442 Clones, SS Clones, GT350 Clones, etc. and diluting the market. But we are talking about a stupid piece of 4" plastic.
