There is a seller on ebay that sells an imitation of the skipper lip. I wonder if anyone here has purchased one from him. Im curious how the quality is on it. He also has pretty poor reviews.

that's funny because i was just looking at this guy's photos last night on instagram. the driver said he was putting on all seibon cf parts. however, what's strange to me is that this doesn't look like the seibon front lip, which flares out a little on the side, like the oem non-F Sport flares or whatever you call them. the other poster mentioned skipper which i believe looks to be more correct, as oppose to seibon.

We sell a similar looking lip once installed and built to last at an unbelievably affordable rate. Would love to see our kit on your ride like many other IS guys. Currently running a group buy.

Seibon has 3 different options. FP is the more "flare type", OP more subtle, and TP is the TRD style one. I love the OP one.
