MPerf lip: any recent reps suggestions?

I'll be getting the front BMWP lip and rear diffuser for the X5. Does anyone have RECENT experience or any raves on a good quality replica?

Im typically an OEM guy when it comes to this sort of stuff, but figured i'd check out the replica side of things and see if anyone has good experiences with a certain vendor. Looks like replicas are 1/3 - 1/2 the cost of a BMWP OEM lip/diffuser

I have both from RW Carbon. The front fit pretty flawlessly and quality of the CF was top notch. The rear diffuser however fit like sh*t and didn’t even work with the included bracket (which is telling that they now don’t even sell it with a bracket). IMO, go RW for the front and OEM for the rear and get the best option in terms of value.

They always had that and the 3D replica from what I recall. Haven’t looked recently, but if not there you can try giving them a call.

wanted to follow up here and mention that RW no longer carries the Mperf front lip. They only carry the 3D rep now.
