Default Lexon front lip vs L style replica on ebay

Not trying to spend too much on a lip, but how does the look compare for those two? i read that the replica one on ebay has to be screwed on?...if anyone has the lexon replica one or the real one can you post pics?

Thanks!

i like carbon personally but this is a daily driver so i went with FRP. my car is also lowered and well if you are NOT carful is does scrape. if this was a "show" car and didn't care about how low it was i would go for carbon. but again it is a long commute driver.

I ordered the replica lip, and I am quite happy with it... But understand you get what you pay for... I am sure the original lips fitment is perfect and there aren't any issues , this one is going to require more time prepping and sanding if you plan to get it professional painted... The holes don't match up with the factory one under the plbottom and you will have to use more self tapping screws to secure it the bumper... Still comes out significantly cheaper... I didn't want to spend close to a grand on a lip just not me... Looks good and works fine I suggest having two people to install and access to a lip... So you won't encounter any issues when mounting it like scratching your paint or such...




That's what she looks like installed which is fine by me...
Also, it's probable that each one comes a little different... At the cheap price I assume they are making them quickly and inefficiently... So remember you get what you pay for... But it's not a terrible waste of money...
