those are copies. the material quality is poor and they are a little smaller than the real one because the material they use to mold them shrinks.
a factory one is like $40 more. I'm not sure the loss in quality is worth the small price difference.
never lost a stock lip. I did lose one rieger lip when I nailed a possum at 80mph. that thing was as big as a dog though.. worst part was I didn't even kill it. :(

Only lip I've ever broken/trashed was an ebay one, I've knocked my OEM/Ryan g set-up countless times and it still looks brand new. I need to rattle can it on occasion because of rock chips.
Ebay lips are garbage, you're pretty much throwing money away when you buy one.sigpic

I always wondered what it must of been like to be a DOT worker in the 90s...imagine how many of the original OEM lips must of been on the side of the highway.
