Front Lip for M Sport model

Hi first post here,

Before I get bashed for not searching the forums, I have, and a lot of the listings recommended by users have been removed or have been out of stock for a while.

Looking to get a front lip for my M sport f15. I see some cheaper ones from China for about $200CAD and then some for $500-700 CAD. Obviously cheaper the better but can anyone say for the quality for the cheaper ones, like this for example?

https://www.ebay.ca/itm/404267387923...a69e%7Ciid%3A1

Biggest factor is always shipping which makes the cost expensive on the other ones. Any help would be appreciated. thanks

having recently searched for a front m performance lip, i ended up going BMWP and skipped the whole fitment/quality bullshit with a replica. I also didn't like that most replica lips are 3 pieces. Thats gotta look like shit once installed.

Have you looked at Maxton designs?

Also if after CF, unit17 have a USA based location as well.

For me, it would need to be OEM BMW Performance or it wouldn't feel right.

Still have an RW Carbon M-Sport lip for sale, never installed. The weave is really well done. I'm sure the BMW Performance lip is even better, but I haven't been able to compare the two.

I also got all OEM - front, rear and mirrors. I also have the OEM CF inside. I tried to get some after market, but they were all worse than OEM - small differences. I tried to get the rear side splitters since the OEM were out, but didn’t end up installing them since they just didn’t have the same fit and finish. JMHO.
