You definitely made the right decision. The ebay seller was understanding and just gave me a full refund. The OEM one is just exactly what u imagined a lip would be when adding it to our cars with no hassle at all. The ebay one is something you'll have to fabricate and "make work." By make work I mean screw in the sides near the wheels is a must, apply your own double side tape which was a PITA from the material the lip is made from, and drill the bottom of the lip in.


I got the OEM one for $275 and selected it to be shipped to dealership since it was free, but instead it was shipped to my house accidentally


How much is it to respray bumper? I'm thinking of doing it in the future and adding a clear protective shield over it. I don't see why tint shops haven't added that as a potential service.

Respray costs me material and labor only. So maybe $150-$175?

Ever consider having the lip "molded" to your front bumper, since you're planning to refinish the bumper anyways? I'd imagine the incremental cost would not be much, and blending the seams of the lip into the bumper really makes the frontend look more streamlined (IMO). Just a thought

Lip is coming in tomorrow on Friday by UPS.

Ordered 07-26
Arrives 07-31

I'm in Dallas TX

The website said it was out of stock but available for order. I wasn't expecting it to be this fast.

This is QAA moonlight white for a 2011 G37S Sedan in case anyone is wondering

Nice!!
It looks perfect on the car. Easy install. A lotta bang for the buck. I added splash guards to round things out since I don't have an S. Though they do have them for the S. Today is, I think, the last day for the online discount.

Where did you find the OEM chin spoiler for $275.00? Was it painted?

It comes painted with all hardware and installation guide.

If you are seriously considering it you will have to buy it quickly.

Theres a 25% off "accessories" coupon and it says "Expires 07/31/2015"

However I just tested it again and as of 08/01/2015 it still works. There's no telling when they will disable it.

It brings the total to $275.40

The 25% off code is

Haven't been on here in a while man sorry it took a while to reply. But I just chose to not put one on. I just feel like it takes away from the look of the car. Never really been harassed by cops about it either.

Front ground clearance is fine and I've never had any scraping issues. The drop on swifts isn't that aggressive that you have to worry about the front lip. Just wishing I had the clear bra done when I put it on.

No, you will need to purchase the non-sport version of the front lip.
