Asian Urethane Front Lip quality

What do you guys think of the quality of the ebay urethane aero lips?
Found one for $90 and they range up to $370 painted and shipped.

I got the $90 aerolip on eBay. Waste of money! See how it fits and how the $350 fits:

You have to double check the aftermarket aero lips, there is a version that is too short on the side like BudVlad posted. There are also perfectly fitting versions that we have had no problem with.

Here is how ours fits to the sides, it should be flush with the wheel well.

I bought one it had okay fitment from JBSPEED but color was a bit off and it wasn't perfect. Maybe like 90%. I wish i would have just bought an oem one off the bat. Ah well, its off now.

really? I just bought a 3d studie rep lip from JBSPEED and installed it. Paint was dead on matching and only had to fit the lip just a little bit to make it look perfect. It was a pretty good replica to me and I will probably post pics up later.
