Trunk Lip Review (Pictures)
Hey everyone. I recently ordered a trunk lip on eBay (cheapest one) and decided to make a review to help everyone out.
THE PRODUCT:
The cheapest trunk lip I've seen for the 3IS and I love the look and for a $55 price tag for a painted trunk lip, I had to pull the trigger. Here is the link.

THE ORDER:
I ordered the trunk lip on September 28 and sent the seller a message with my car's color name and paint code. I was quoted an estimated delivery time of Oct. 21 - Oct. 29. I was very pleasantly surprised when I received a Fed-Ex package on Oct. 9. My trunk lip arrived packaged very professionally and carefully in order to not damage it. I opened the package and from first glance, knew it was great. The quality was 10/10 and the paint work was 10/10 too. Although the trunk lip is flexible, I flexed as far as possible and the paint remained perfect. The 3M double tape was included and there was even extra just in case you mess up putting it on.
INSTALLATION:
The first thing I did was pull my car out into the hot SoCal sun and let the trunk heat up to allow the double tape to stick better. I then Krazy Glued the 3M double tape to the trunk lip as the quality of the trunk lip would not allow the double tape to stick well to it. The double tape did stick extremely well to the trunk with no gluing required. I measured the placement and began slowly installing the flexible trunk spoiler from one end to the other. I slowly removed the double tape's backing as I went. The pamphlet included in my package recommended using a heat gun for installation but did not specify whether the heat gun was okay for painted trunk lips or non painted only. No heat was required and the trunk lip curved perfectly with the trunk. After installing, I gave the trunk lip a quick wax and was finished.
THE FINAL LOOK:
Here are a couple close up pictures of the paint match and quality.
Anyway, thanks for checking my review out and if you have questions or anything, shoot me a PM.

OP looks great color coded.
Got the same one a few months back in gloss black and so far so good. If it survives our winter, it's an A+ especially for the low cost.
