Default OEM Lip Vs JDMSh!t Lip: for EM1

I recently busted 1/4 of my front lip on my Civic Si. If you have seen one of my recent photoshoots you prolly noticed

Anyway, should I get OEM or go with the JDMSh!t one? I'm referring to the "CTR style" lip. OEM will prolly run me around $220+ including shipping from hondaautomotiveparts.com. The JDMSh!t one costs $85 shipped and I can get it painted for 70 bucks or so.

I've looked around and found that the jdmsh!t lip dosent have holes on both sides, so I'd have to test fit it and drill prior to painting. Overall, hows the fitment of this lip onto the 99-00 bumper?

So, OEM or JDMissh??

peace.

and how in the **** does hondaautomotive parts even have a discontinued item in stock much less prepare to get BUTRAPPED on the shipping because you will not know how much it is until its in the mail and its already out of your bank account and it most likely will be 90 dollars.

i have the jdmshit one on my 99 civic. the fitment was tight...but it fit. kinda had to pull it pretty hard to get it to go on. there are no holes or anything in the jdmshit lip so you gotta test fit it. thats not hard to do though. im satisfied with the jdmshit lip
