Default Carbon fiber Del Sol EBAY lip

This ad says it fits a 93-97 del sol. As far as I know, I haven't seen any other place that sells carbon fiber lips for a del sol. Has any one tried these out before?

true... most of the higher rated sellers that have a rep usually arent selling too bad a product.

True true, I always just used the seller rating as a guide to whether they would ship my stuff after i paid for it. Good idea using it to jusge on fitment and return policies

i didnt know they sent you stuff before you paid for it. thats news to me.


also if you got paypal, you can file a dispute that the item was not of that listed.

2 KEY THINGS TO NOTE HERE:

A/Ebay cf products are usually VERY cheaply made(easy fading &/or very fragile,etc), have no quality control(poor fitment, cosmetic defects, etc)

and more importantly:

B/ the 2 different OEM bumpers(95-95 then 96-97) have diferent curvatures where lips mount and are not universal 93-97 like the seller claims


save your money or buy a lip made out of material that is pliable(ABS or polyurethane) not stiff like CF or FG and you MIGHT possibly get it to fit decently.

so what you're saying


is he has a 50-50 shot between those 4 years of it fitting correctly?

odds sound good enough in vegas, good enough for me.
