Replica M performance front spoiler

Anyone running a replica m performance front lip spoiler? I ordered one from China and had it painted gloss black. Needless to say it fits like crap, obviously I assumed since it is a China knock off it would be a little off but this thing isn't even close!

Hard luck! I guess you can return it to them. The OEM ones is really high quality material and perfect fit, I would consider buying a used one before getting an aftermarket.

On the front lip... My understanding is on RW it doesn't come with the clips and brackets that helps with alignment and attachment of the front lip. I wouldn't waste your time and money on reps and just get the OEMs for the front and rears. The mirror caps and other carbon fiber accessories can work with aftermarkets.
