End C.C CF lip. nice......

End C.C replica CF Front lip. I think it looks really aggressive and doesn't cover the M sport bumper like all the other lips. Wish someone could import it in the US.

I think the original manufacturing should lower their pricing, that way we would go with the authentic parts instead of replica.
I know designing part and opening a molding die is very expensive, but those original makers charge too much for their parts. If their price is about a couple hundred more than the replica instead of 2x or 3x as much, I think they will get a lot more business.

I think 78 Mao had the whole kit on before he got rear ended and replaced it with 650.

This is just a replica, much cheaper version that finally came out.

huh? confused.... This replica is made in Taiwan. The link is Yahoo Taiwan auction
30 Taiwan dollar = 1 US dollar.
So 16800 TD= 560 USD. That is the installation price in Taiwan. About half of what an authentic part cost.

ha ha, I do. But air shipping will cost you about $150. The best way to do this is to contact a US distributor to import them and do ocean shipping. I am sure someone will do that soon.
