Burnout front lip knock offs?

These look like burnout front lips, and I was wondering (since they are on ebay after all) if anyone else had these on their car? I saw it on rotr8's ride (the authentic one. tried searching but couldn't find one) and fell in love with it.


here's the picture

I'd be wary of buying any body part from eBay that isn't brand name...

shine auto makes a full kit replica for $900.

fitment is pretty spot on. i've seen pics of a lot of the kits. and supposedly attachment is even better than the original. uses existing holes, dont have to drill, etc.

Wow that's not a bad price. Is it carbon fiber or polyurethane?

I would be ware of anything you buy on E bay that is not directly from a good manufacturer.

No distributors.

Your better off getting something from a member here.

Any questions? just ask around about the member before you buy.

your all wrong this is simular to the Burnout but not, now that Kelli PM'd me I now see the difference,,, the KS Auto Burnout and Shine are a single shelfed(this is going to be difficult to explain) lip where as the TCs has a dip/scalloped frotn face to it,,, uuggghhh pics will be easier to explain I will post after this post

The fitment of the front lip is perfect. TC Sportline used my car [in the picture] during production. The picture you see online is the actually production model fitted on my car, it was only held on with double sided tape, no screws.

The lip also has pre-drilled holes and mounting hardware and uses stock mounting locations. And yes, it is in polyurethane material.

Cool. They offered me the front lip and side skirts for 450 shipped. what do you think? Not a bad deal right?

Lightbulb

This is why I'm getting the evo- r one. See the way the center hole on photomunky looks vs the evo-r one?
I think the evo-r one looks more clean. Where the other ones look cheezy IMO.
Red 8 \_____/
Evo-R /_____\
Know what I mean?
LOL thats cool not only does the illustration show you how they are shaped but what the evo-r one looks like on the oem front end lol

personally I think KS Auto(Burnout Type II ) is the only one where the styling cues from the car were considered, with the Type I, KS Auto clearly felt they could do better and did and in just one short year later the Type II was out...
They payed attention to the angles used in the OEM bumper and repeated, and out of the three I believe it best flows with those lines....
