Is this the front lip i have been looking for , it seems abit cheap, like 20pound :S

Obviously shipping and tax's on top will bump up the pruice but it still cheaper than honda uk isnt it?

Doesnt seem anything wrong with that yes its cheaper than Honda UK, but you have got to be careful with these items sometimes the product was molded shit and wont fit or will need to be adapted to fit costing more and looking shit.

I'm sure a few on here have used a guy from the US who is good, someone will know who.

Bank on that costing 'around'

Mate thats the one i got. Its great , needs spraying though. I saved lots of money. A bit of a hassle to fit but once fitted there is no telling from the real one.

Remember the price of a litre of Xirallic paint - not cheap.
And if the molding is rough it will take a lot of labour to prep too.

They often fold these parts to ship, not good.
If coming in by USPS it will end up with Parcel Farce UK.
So, bank on about

It does come folded. You heat it up a bit and voila - its straight again.

Surface is very smooth, so sprayer sanded it a bit, appled primer. Then did his magic and got it in line with my Berlina black.

Fitted it with the help of my dad. Bit of a hassle that as you have to work under a very low car.

All in all worth it.

As regards a group buy: !!!! 30 dollars is all it costs mate which is the equivalent of 2 pints here at the local bar.
