your incorrect Gill, look at the body of the lip the OP posted (post 1), even though its black there are 0 gaps,breaks, holes in it like the Lexon. It is a TTE lip (replica i would imagine) on a OEM bumper that he cut out the fog area and such for more opening

you are actually look at the 1st pic and now look at the one you have posted. they arent the same. the lip on the 1st pic is a solid lip coming across the front, the Lexon one has several "holes" or gaps in it

OH..... i may retract my statement there. it does look like there are gaps in the lip. Ok Gill, Firelizard, i may concede I'm still not 100%, my biggest ? is why can you not see the intercooler on the bottom through the lip like you can see through the Lexon one

anymore pics?

I think you need to adjust your monitor.
You can't see the intercooler below the bumper because it fits without cutting the bottom of the bumper.
I've taken the liberty of adjusting the contrast so you can see that it is without a doubt a Lexon lip.

NICE! Well done Firelizard! I wish we could see whats on the back of that car. Are there any splitters that work well with the stock side skirts?
