I need a new front lip. OEM would be fine. Does anyone know of a cheap place online? The local dealer wants 299 which isnt bad considering it comes painted.

I do like the CFType front carbon lip but I dont feel like paying over 400 bucks for it...

Any help on where to find either cheaper is appreciated..

I would too. you could always paint the carbon fiber one though...

Cmon, I know someone has to know a place to find something cheaper!

carbon fiber has been played out by the entire rice scene. not only is it over priced but its ugly for the most part. id much rather pay for cheaper fiberglass

that lip is not overpriced. If you knew how expensive carbon fiber matte and resin is youd know its not cheap. I do agree it can be ugly but I have a white car and I think it looks alright. Fiberglass hardly ever fits correctly, is usually heavier and isnt quite as durable as urethane. If that lip was urethane Id be all over it.

carbon matte is over twice as much as the glass. you use the same epoxies on carbon as you do glass.
