Fitment is good, but I HIGHLY recommend you take it to a skilled body shop so they can make it perfect (and of course inspect at it). My brother got me this as a CHristmas gift, it's awesome deal!

I would go for them, for the price you also get floor mats FTMFW lolz!

I have it too from ABS Dynamics. Still not put in on though. Just did a trial fitment and looks like my bodyshop will have to do some minor trimming to get it right.

I got it from ABS Dynamics who is the actual manufacturer of this item. They have a outlet store on Ebay.

I just ordered myself this replica last week. Going to arrive right after Christmas. Hopefully fitment isn't too bad, cost me just $120. They call it "Wow Style" lol.

Have a replica wald on my 2is, not sure if it is a bayson r or ebay but it's abs as well. Just fitted on it looks ok but there will definitely be slight gaps, same thing with any lip replica or not. I highly recommend you go to a professional body shop and have them trim fit and paint it. I did and by looking at it you couldnt tell the difference between it and a real wald IMO. Buying a fiberglass lip will run you way more and take it from me you will stress just a little less when you scratch it, and that will happen at some point. Overall body shop ftw! Try checking this thread I know chikoo, me, and some other guys discussed it in a little more depth, there's pictures as well.

The fitment issue I am discribing is that sometimes they rush the knock offs (as well as the originals) thru so they can meet quota's and the material does not have time to settle. EVERY NOW AND THEN you find one that is off by a few millameter or even an inch. A good body shop will and can heat treat it to fit perfectly. It's not one that cannot be fixed just needs attention from someone who knows what they are doing. Not trying to scare you at all!

Most lips regardless of replica or not will be off by millimeters and centimeters, if it's over an inch than that was POS. Like you said body shop will know how to treat this as well as relieving stress points by trimming and heat treating. Below is a properly fitted rep.
Where are the screws and tape?

Over the stock, non gfx. Tape is on inside of the lip that fits over the bumper, screws are inside the wheel wells. Also rep front lip ftw like you said because it will get scratched, mine already has and after sweating it for a week I got over it, it's just going to happen again and when it gets bad I'll just repaint it. Going authentic for side skirts and rear though!
