eBay Kits?

Has anyone bought kits from eBay? I was thinking in buying http://www.ebay.com/itm/13-14-Scion-...ZU3kQl&vxp=mtr
for my car. Any opinions?

Dude! Why a second thread on the same subject? You have one on this topic from less than an hour ago. This question would fit in it just fine.

I'm with tcoat here, look in the last thread for good recommendations you shouldn't double up threads like this
@ichitaka05 and @STZ led you to the right location.

Also be weary of eBay kits, always assume they'll have fitment issues when they are off brand as is the case with this ebay link also it says this in the description:
  • Like almost all aftermarket polyurethane lip kits, YES, you will need to drill holes.
  • 3M Industrial Double-sided Tape is NOT Included, but is REQUIRED for installation
So it's not a simple install like some of the other kits that use the existing holes from the car and add an extended pop clip, there is some drilling involved and this part may or may not come with a template to show you where.
Also the same item that this "magicdrift" is selling is on their amazon store here:[ame="http://www.amazon.com/Bottomline-Urethane-Bumper-Spoiler-Models/dp/B00ISC7U8M/ref=cm_cr_pr_product_top?ie=UTF8"]Amazon.com: Scion FRS CS GT Bottomline Style Urethane Front Bumper Chin Spoiler Lip for 13+ Models: Automotive[/ame]

and they have reviews like this:
"Doesn't fit! Not only is it too small, but you also have to drill holes to mount it. What a waste of money. Better off miso ends the extra cash and getting a lip the fits correctly. "
"Looks good. But its garbage. The center has no room to mount so have fun screwing 3748387 tap in screws to your bumper just to hold it. "
"It doesn't fit perfect as it's a little off, wasn't too impressed by that, but not much I can do now that it's on my car!"


Bottom line is stay away from those and follow what people recommended...

I have the this kit on my car. It came kinda warped, I'm guessing due to the heat where I live, but it was easily fixed with a heat gun and some pressure. After that it seemed to fit fine with no issues.
Tip: Don't use the screws they provide, those rusted after a day for me.

Would black lip kit look good on a asphalt grey Scion FR-S?
