There are a lot of rep cr lip on ebay now for only $145. However they do not come with mounting kit and not sure if they will be folded.
Anyone has experience with them? Are they the same thing with forcewerkz rep?

something like this

 

i bought one, looks nice out of the box, but i haven't painted it yet so we wont know till i do some time next month

edit: they also came nice and straight out of the box. they gave me 3m tape and 4 screws

 

cool! goodluck fitting it on! i ended up going with forcewekz. it should be in this week!
hope it'll fit well

 

If put the real Honda CR lip and the replica CR lip side by side, especially on the backside, you will understand the price difference.

 

Have to agree here. My OEM CR lip is one damn well engineered piece.

 

not expecting the rep to match the oem quality at 1/3 of the price, but as long as they fit and looks close enough to oem i'll be happy. too bad oem cr lip doesnt come in silverstone that's the only reason im looking for a rep...

Have an OEM one painted. My car is Suzuka, and I had my OEM CR lip painted to match. Within your budget, of course. The factory piece is a great thing, but if you can't afford it, well you know the rest. Won't knock a guy for saving money, although the quality will not even be close. For other replica lips, I'd say maybe. But the CR lip was designed to be used on a track, hence the massive amounts of structural supports. Just my .02cents.

A painted OEM one = ~$700-800 just for a front lip. One off at the track can damage your investment especially body parts and rims. I mean it's just like everyone knows volks makes light and strong quality rims and were designed for track use, but do you really want to use your 3k rims that you waited for 3 months as track rims? Maybe you will sir but a lot of people certainly won't because there are alternative out there. They might be not as good, but they'll still do the job.

Back to the topic, I just want to compare the quality and fitment between the cheap ebay one vs forcewerkz one, if there's any...

P.s. I did see the back of the OEM CR lip and I was amazed. I do agree the price they charge for that lip is more than reasonable! It's just that I don't want to spend the extra to paint the already nicely painted Brand New lip...

 

fitment is 9/10. i say this because its not a oem piece. i do have to make my own brackets but for the price i think its a great buy

 

You can find used CR lips for $300-350 then the paint cost will be the same for the real and the replica. ~200 bucks isn't much when there is a drastic difference between quality.
