sorry i have workers that dont speak very much english ( Hispanic's ) so when i tell them where to ship to, they sometimes misspell words and street address
I am a bit offended by this comment. Even though it may be relevant to the situation, I don't think it should have been mentioned...Doesn't seem fair to blame those who make your products, produce your revenue and then disrespect their intelligence...People all over this forum praise you to having the best product at the best price and continue to attract more clientele for your business. I am one of those who has been persuaded to purchase an AP1 lip from you, which I will do very soon and I'm sure I'll be satisfied with the item.

Keep up the good work but remember, no one is perfect...

I don't think he was blaming them, just explaining the situation.

I'd rather here about an honest mistake made by someone trying to learn English than him just being too busy to get them shipped out or some other excuse...

okay well i bought one and i told you guys i would let you know how it went so here it goes...

i sent him a pm to ask a couple questions and then made my decision that i would go ahead and get one. cant really go wrong for the price. so he sent me his pay pal info and i sent him the money. it was after 3 so fed ex had already picked up his stuff for the day so he insured me that it would be sent out the next morning. he was very prompt on every pm i sent him to return a reponse and answer all my questions. the next evening i had a new pm and it was my tracking number. looked it up and sure enough there it was. it said picked up and in transit. it arrived at my door step in about 3 days. the box was fuked but that is only cuz of fedex. the lip was not harmed at all and looked great. the install wasnt as easy as i had expected, but after thinking about it for a little bit on how to use the brakets in the kit he sent i made it up and got it to work. its a very good product and a great guy to work with. here is a pic of it on the car. its not the best quality, but it was dark and by batteries were dying.

Just purchased a lip from bomberman myself. I can't wait to see how it fits. I will give feedback as soon as I install it.

Got my Bomberman lip installed today.

My thoughts - not impressed.
It was not packaged very well. So even though it's not "folded in half" like some might be, it was pretty mangled and not laid flat.
The finish was.. okay at best. It needed some work to get it perfect and ready for paint. The edges a bit rough.
No mounting hardware came with mine. Not sure if they're supposed to or not.

However, it does fit pretty well. Not quite like OEM, but close.

In the end, I paid $130 shipped for the lip (slight discount for getting 2 shipped to same place), and $225 for paint and install. I got raped on the paint/install price I guess. But either way, I ended up paying OEM price for an OEM replica.

Bottom line: If you're going to have it painted, just get OEM. If you want to rock it in matte black, it's a fine piece.

I think the fitment is okay and it can be close to OEM, but I need something to put in the gap similar to the OEM lip seal. Does anybody know of a silicone or rubber trim that I can put between the lip and the bumper to "absorb" some of the rough edges?
