my biggest concern with this is the material if I was to buy...if it's fiberglass, i'd hold out for the real deal due to the urethane's flexibility.
The longer you hold out, the less available the authentic piece becomes. TTE is not exporting their stuff out of Europe anymore.
Fiberglass can be somewhat flexible, but not nearly as flexible as urethane.

them not exporting doesn't put limitations on obtaining one...just have to make good friends with a CL member in the UK
however...looking at the VIS site, the Wise rep lip kit looks really really appealing!

Why does everyone want a TTE lip that bad , They been done to many times. I say save your money and get an after market front bumper, That's a rip off if you ask me, I would never pay that much for a fake. I could see if it was 100 dollars just my 2 cents

I agree with philly.
I would wait and look for REAL TTE lip and put in that extra 100-120 for the real deal. I mean when it does come around or someone is selling it.
but for me... I don't really like that look of the TTE lip too. Sorry, it doesn't fit my cup of tea.
