Did you end up giving the m-perf front lip replica a try?

Hi Eric,
I actually decided to go with their new "lightweight" style lip. I have it at my house, just haven't gotten it over to the body shop for paint/install yet. Will update with pics once it is on the car.

The lip is sold by MagicDrift, not bulbxpert. The last lip I bought was from MagicDrift as well. I liked that last one a lot but hit a crate on the freeway that tore it off. Here is a link to the product:

How well does it fit? And how do you like it so far? For $60 it’s not a bad idea to try it out if it’s a plastic lip like the lightweight

I picked up these from aliexpress, can anyone who previously bought them comment on fitment and quality?

Pictures look good, pricing is even better, anywhere from 50-80% less than traditional retailers (whom some I suspect straight up dropship from here)

Around 300$ for seat rear carbon shells, 15$ for door handle trim and 30$ for dct surround carbon bit

Do you have another picture from the side with the top down? Curious to see how it looks when in convertible mode. Looks great!

For anyone interested, here's the vinyl I bought:

Are your handles plastic or did you wrap the leather? I just got my 6D wrap delivered and went out to the car noticing that mine are leather.

I bought plastic CF handles from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B089LLSC37...ing=UTF8&psc=1

Since the cf weave on these ones is pretty meh, I wrapped over them with the cf vinyl

Gotcha, wasn't sure if it had anything to do with the extended leather package.
