Arkym Front Lip Replica?
Sorry for making so many threads, but I figured they're all different topics and I don't want stuff to get lost in one big post.
Anyway, I really like the Arkym Carbon Fiber Front Lip. Unfortunately, I think $1300 is a bit much for it when other people charge half or less of that for their lips. Does anyone make a replica of that specific lip?
As an alternative, I realize I can get the non-carbon fiber version for about half the price. If I were to wrap it in carbon fiber vinyl, would it look good/last?

Carbon fibre vinyl will never look as good as real CF.
There is no replica of the Arkym lip.
You can either go with the Godhand Lip off eBay or buy the non-CF Arkym lip and leave it as is

I bought the regular arkym lip and had it painted to match my car. Looks great you should just do that. The fitment is perfect and makes it look like it came on the car from the factory. I bought it from a forum sponsor DCTMotorsports, Ivan is a great guy.

i have a terrible imagination though. i can't get myself to visualize a silver car with a painted silver arkym lip or a silver car with the carbon fiber one to decide which one looks better.
i wish i knew how to use photoshop.
