Front Lip - STI Replica?

I'm considering getting a front lip, but don't want to pay for STI one for my BRZ.

I've checked out the HT Auto Koru Works and Bayson R front lips online. Bayson R is super cheap, but I am skeptical about it's fitment and quality.

Anyone want to chime in?

Cheap, and if you got it hydro dipped it can be painted gloss black for cheap too.

BaysonR has been proven to have great fitment. I have the TRD style spoiler and the fitment is excellent, a million times better than the Version Select FRP product I sent back.

Bayson R ABS is a great purchase, I highly recommend it. Although, I would totally do what I did and Plasti-Dip it. Get 3 spray cans, put about 8 coats on it, first coat really light, thicker each coat, the final coat make sure it looks completely wet, let it dry overnight and I swear it looks like it was meant to be on our car from the factory, matches the rest of the black trim. Fit is perfect and I've gotten some great compliments at cars and coffee. Also, don't forget to use the included rubber strips on the 2 angled straights. I put the side adhesive on top of the lip and the curved part of the rubber strip is facing down. Use the washers when installing into the 2 main holes already under your bumper, and screw in every hole on the lip for a nice secure perfect fit. I used a small bit of black super strong outdoor double sided tape on the part that touches the inside of the wheel well. Worth every penny.

Curious to see how your setup came out as well..

Was thinking of Bayson R, but wasn't sure about fitment. Now I'm leaning towards it. In the end, I get what I pay for. Not looking to spend too much on it since it's cosmetic plastic mods.
