Default replica CR lip

been looking for OEM lip. but factoring the cost to paint, it's going to cost around $1000 for a new oem lip and painted. just out of budget for something that's going to get banged up over time. looking at replica CR lips and found that forcewerkz no longer makes them. and if they did, read they no longer have the mounting tabs on the bottom. can anyone recommend a vendor for these things now a days? prefer one with good fitment and tabs for support? i know it's not gonna be 100% but there's got to be something better than ebay.

You can still find painted lips on ebay for under $500. Most are reputable vendors as well so no need to worry.

I had a replica CR lip from ebay. I don't think any come with the mounting tabs, so I created my own straight 4" brackets and put like 4 of them in the center along with 2 screws on the side of the lip and that was more than enough to hold it in place. Cost of lip + paint ended up being under $300. Also pick up the oem lip gasket while you're at it.

For the record I have an oem lip now because I got a good deal on it.
