Brabus Replica Coupe Lip Installed

Hi, I recently got/installed the brabus replica lip from SSG. and my gosh man, its a replica. but its one hell of a replica! the material is freakin flexible. seriously found out the hard way. the shop accidentally closed the door on the lip. but no damage, no crack no nothing. and the lip its tight, it fits perfect. below are some pics. before anyone trashes. yes I know its a replica. but like I said, its one bad *** replica!

thanks SSG

Ad;

Looks good. That I will freely give. But as I understand it, that piece is a knock off, made from a direct mold of a Brabus piece.

That is no go in my book.
