    You get what you pay for.

    I have one and wish I spent the money on OE.

                Volvo lips are for people who don't fix their broken odometer.

                  Why's that? Looks the same, made of the same material (i think).

                      This has been the third or forth topic about this exact discussion THIS YEAR


                      EBAY SELLS CRAPPY iS LIPS OR $80. EVERYONE KNOWS; IT IS NOT NEW NEWS.
                      Do yourself a favor and buy an OEM iS lip from Blunt

                        They aren't made from the same material.
                        Those replica lips are sensitive to any sort of contact and crack easy.
                        I compare them to plastic forks when people ask. I would only ever buy one if I drove a stock height e30.

                          Good to know, I'll see what I can do with mine to reinforce it.

                          I just checked the auction as well, they accept returns up to 60 days so that may be an option.

                          Guess the lesson is to search the forums first before making a potentially "sweet deal purchase". Sorry to make such a nOOb blunder!!

                            My buddy got one of these ebay lips and it fit good and looks identical but then he parked a little too close to a curb and a slight bump broke the lip in 3 pieces.... oem lip like i have on my slammed car is like a street sweeper and takes a hell of a beating year after year and holds up!

                              $20 more buys you a real BMW lip that won't fall apart.

                              I don't get it.


                              also, I have one of those Chinese "i" lips. It looks similar but it really isn't exactly the same - it's a bit too short on the edges, for example.

                              not worth $20 for the quality difference.
