Best place to find STI front lip?

I've been searching through the forums trying to find the best place to get a front lip. I've looked through group-buys, classifieds, and ebay, but I have an issue. I won't be able to pick one up for a few months. So, is there a reputable store that sells them for less than the dealership $600?

Thanks for the help!

You can do japanparts.com, dealer or ebay. There's other vendors but the costs will be similar. You can also always go for the knock-off version for much less than half the cost. I like the dealer option cuz I don't have to pay japanland shipping anymore.

A replica STi front lip can be had for about $80. In fact, I have 2 sitting in my closet right now. LOL

The only thing you'll need to do w/ the replicas is plasticoat/paint, since the finish on the replicas are too shiny IMO.
