Default ebay front lip

Does anyone have these installed? My driveway is somewhat steep at the end and occasionally when backing out it bottoms out and I cringe at the scrape sound. I just want to get the cheap ebay lip to protect the front carbon lip a little bit better but would like to see how it looks on other cars before I spend money on it.

I take it you're talking about this one?

I know some peeps that have the ebay lip and they needed to trim / shave parts of the lip to make fit. It's a poor knock off replica of the Lexon lip. Treat yourself to a nice one and get a driveway ramp on Amazon!

I have a novel front lip on mine, but I used sliplo on the bottom of that. I scrape going up the driveway everytime, but it has not phased it yet.
