Default Stillen front lip/diffuser or Seibon?

Hey ya'll. Been looking at front lips and diffusers to start out with. Is it worth getting the Seibon CF lip and diffuser or just settling with the cheaper alternative of Stillen. I'm not too big of a fan of the matte black look. Also any thoughts on jcsportline? Do any require drilling holes? Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Seibon is nice. Also carbon fiber for a good price.

Contact us for pricing!

I have the jc sportline diffuser, great fitment and cheaper then Stillen/seibon. Highly suggest getting it cause it also is carbon fiber.
Recently got the seibon duckbill trunk and it looks awesome. However the fitment is HORRIBLE. I contacted them hoping they'll pay for a shop local to me to fix the fitment issue. So as far as seibon I'm not sure how they're products are.. I've had a bad experience so far.

JCSportline is a hit or miss.

One of my friend has it and it fits good, mine and another friends fitment is pretty bad. My carbon fiber pattern was also rushed and it sits in different shapes. But aside that, can't complain for it being a replica diffuser of the aimgain

I went with a replica aimgain lip from eBay. I would say fitment is 98%, it doesn't sit quite flush when the lip meets the fenders. Other than that, the material quality will last longer than CF, as it won't chip or crack easily.

It comes it a matte-ish/glossy black. I drilled 6 holes under the bumper.

I may be, depending on if I can work out a deal for a new car today. Should I just DM you? Do the Seibon rear diffusers and front lips fit the new 17 is350 fsport? I know the front bumper has been redesigned slightly.

Hope you get the car but no.. No cosmetics for the new body except the Artisan Spirit kit.
