I wouldn't reccomend getting a CF lip.. it's just asking to be cracked. I have a Mugen copy on mine.. it looks pretty damn good. I'll have pictures up here in a day or so.

Yeah.. it's strong, but not strong enough when you actually need to drive your car as a daily driver A LOT. One little smack into anything and it's cracked. It's a lot of money to put on the front bottom of your car, which is the area most proned to having any damage done to it during normal driving.
