Found some new STI style front lips, what do you think?

Been looking for a decent STI style Polyurethane front lip (the kind that 'folds' up on the sides) and before the new year choices were very scarce. But now I've found a handful more on eBay, but I need your help to see if these look like good quality lips and are worth purchasing.

Sorry for all the links, but just want some educated opinions, thanks!

How would it be STi-style on an FRS? I looked at his car, his lip isn't STi style. It wouldn't fit. Do I need really to say this? The fronts are different.

The styling is similar enough. I'm sorry though, please don't take my lunch money.

I still don't see what you're talking about... similar style? No.

You're such a victim, someone get this man a blanket.

On mine the sides line up but the lip itself is off center. It's not a terrible difference but acceptable for the price.
