Default Front Lip from EBAY

Hey Guys,

I'm looking for a standard front lip for my 07 STi. Have been quoted by a Subaru rep that it will cost $650~ from them. I have done a few searches on ebay and have found a few sellers with great feedback selling for $150~. I was wondering if anyone would recommend paying the extra 500 or so for the genuine front lip from the dealership? Also is the quality any better?

Any info would be appreciated,
cheers

ULTREX. Sell great quality stuff. I wouldn't bother with a genuine lip that you worry about destroying every bump or curb.

I have an Ultrex front lip.

It fit 95%.

A small 5mm gap between a corner of the front lip and the car's front bar. I gotta fill it with silicone and paint it, then it should look tops.

Ultrex - service was great, item needed a fair bit of work to fit.

+1 for Ultrex...had one of those cheap PU lips on my 06 STI...probably not as well fitting as an OEM item, but after you screw it in, looks the same from far away lol
