1. i don't think anyone has these on their car
2. it's not very popular (as in a lot of people have them)
3. they are canards... not a bumper or lip...
4. if someone did do a replica on it, it would probably be seibon since they are carbon fiber.



just my asumptions on things...

1.) Even if a knockoff did exist, it probably wouldn't look or fit right. The bends and curves take more skill that third world country knockoff producers have.

2.) The cheaper knockoff carbon material would fall apart over time...

3.) Knockoffs are teh ghey...if you like a part, save up and get the real thing.

But it's close to $800.00f***ing bucks;might not be much,for some of you guys,but lot of money for me,for two small pieces of C.F.
But,I want them so bad,started saving my pennies already !!!
