Icon2 is this lip kit website legit?

I not totally sure if this belongs in this section or not so sorry in advance if it doesnt..
so ive been looking for an oem style lip kit for my prelude forever now that i can trust but that doesnt cost over 900 dollars.. and the one day i came across this website:

OEMLIP.com

and by looking at every thing it seems to be legit but i wanted to see what u guys think or if u bought from them before let me know what u think of them.

and do u guys recommend the flex fiberglass? which is what the prelude lip kit is made out of.

thanks

From what I have heard fiber glass is bad news.

this is the flex fiberglass tho.. it supposed to flex a lot more then the regular fiberglass (since it has polymers in it which allow it to flex) but not as much as the polyurethane lips (i think). but i dont know if i should get it if it does break easy or a pain to put on..

I would be hesitant to buy anything made of fiberglass, flex or not. The stuff is just an all-around pain in the ***. your prep for paint will be a nightmare and then they paint will probably look like **** on it anyway. Urethane is the way to go. You get what you pay for.
