That is the reason why you dont buy p.u. items.
ABS is the best.

We just learned about this crappy knockoff a couple days ago.. That is NOT the Racing Solution RS lip and it is a cheap knockoff made overseas. Ours is USA made. We have asked them to remove the photograph of OUR product from their website.

this is why i refuse to buy cheap replicas and etc. it will never fit right, they cut costs where ever they can, which means folding shit up and using the "sun"

It isn't your lip. The one in at the top of the picture on the website is of your product. The bottom of the picture as well as what was sent to the op is actually a replica of HTAuto's front lip.

Top picture is ours.. dunno who actually makes the bottom lip.. but the two are slightly different designs. For whatever reason they're using OUR picture as an "on car" shot even though what they are selling is different

Just to clarify, the company name that puts this terrible product out is called ABS Dynamics, here's a link http://www.absdynamics.com/scion-frs...S13-A_1785.php

Racing Solutions has had nothing to do with this (except for getting their picture stolen by the knock off brand). In fact, upon learning of my predicament, they offered me a discount on their lip. Meanwhile, I have put 2 calls into ABS Dynamics that are yet to be returned...

I would call these companies competitors because they both sell 86 parts but in reality, they are in different leagues in terms of quality and customer service.

Just a heads up, I went back to ebay to leave feeback on seller and now this lip is listed at $130 (was $100 when I bout it). Do not waste your money. Save up, there are plenty of quality lips that are just over this price range.
