[QUOTE=EssTooKayTD,Oct 7 2004, 01:55 PM] That is just how these lips fit, both replicas and authentic.

It broke into pieces after a little, shall we say, mishap, at the track.

Not really. The authentic lips fit perfectly if you take the time to mount them right.

I miss my lip.
I guess I didn't try to remount it enough times...I used the supplied spacers, and it actually was more of a restriction. I tried with and without the spacers. Got it close, but not quite. Same with the replica. I mean the replicas are made from a mold of the real thing, so how could it not fit just as well? I guess unless it's a poor mold I like the urethane (just for smaller pieces, not side skirts), gives me more play.
