Default Front lip for 2011

I've read in a few post that there are no lips for the 2011-12 model except for a korean kit. I was on ebay just browsing for items for my is and came across this one for anyone interested....

It looks like a 06-08 GFX lip made to fit.

It looks nicer than Lexon!

Also this fits without the F-Sport lip.

Ya, looks like a GFX or fab? lip stapled to the bottom of it.

It looks incomplete to me.

Doesn't look too bad, I would like it more if the sides were pushed forward a little for a splitter look.

It looks ok but it'll probably look better if the lip is flushed against the bumper where the fog lights are rather than leaving a noticeable gap in between

Eh I don't like it, the way the 2011/12 looks with the F-Sport front lip pieces is the best look, IMO.
