RyanZ06, I can honestly tell you that nothing currently on my car is from Ebay (not to say I haven't had ebay stuff on it at some point).
As cool as ebay's "Ree-ger Nfinity I Style Lip With DTM Style Splitter" is, a word of advice, when they have to misspell a brand and product to avoid copyright infringement and religiously use the word "-style" in a description, it's usually a good idea to stay away.
That being said, I do run an authentic Rieger Tuning Infinity I lip, splitter, and sideskirts, all made from ABS Plastic.
That's not to say all replicas are a bad thing, but I wouldn't touch that auction with a 10ft pole. If other members have a good experience with that stuff, then feel free to try it.
Your question got me thinking and looking up current prices since I've been out of it for a long time. All I can say is that stuff is just ridiculously priced these days. I don't intend to "gloat" but I paid $220 shipped for a brand new Rieger Lip and Splitter. When I bought, the lip price was about 119 Euros and the splitter was 89 Euros and the exchange rate was 1:1. I paid $120 for the lip, $80 for the splitter, and $20 for shipping. It may have been 4-5 years ago, and I got some money off because I bought some stuff for friends too, but damn, vendors are outrageous these days. Nature of the business and economy I guess, but with my mind set, I'd never pay $233 shipped for those two ebay items. Finished ranting.
