My aimgain kit is authentic and I went through a buddy at speed alliance in San Diego for it.

Looks like this just not the real deal or carbon fiber.

Does anyone paint their lip flat black, or just leave it unpainted?

I'm looking at buy this type of lip as well. Is it the eBay Aimgain Rep?

How is the fit and installation? You said you secured with screws, how many did you have to drill?

I have this lip as well - very nice for the price. I think I paid just just over $100 on eBay. It installs easily with 8 to 10 self drilling black screws - no need to drill holes. It screws into the bottom of the plastic front bumper.

One day I noticed it was hanging down near the front - I remember it bottoming out on a slopped driveway recently. When I looked underneath I could see one of the screws had pulled out. I also noticed that ALL of the nice black screws were rusting. I went down to Lowes and bought stainless steel pan-head screws in the next larger size and replaced them all in about 5 minutes. The SS screws are not black, but you can't see them anyway. The larger screws hold the lip on much tighter than the ones that came with it. If you get this lip I suggest you take the screws to the hardware store and get the next larger size in stainless steel.

Sorry to bring this old thread, I'm thinking about purchasing that A-Style Lip as well, those that have it, you guys just used the existing screws from the car? Or new holes had to be drilled? Thank you
