You asked what it was worth, and I told you. Things are worth what someone will pay for them. I would pay 250 bucks. The cost is what seller's charge. Cost and worth are two entirely different things, my odd posting friend.

The Carlsson lip spoiler, which I have on my car, is flat on the bottom where the Euroteck ones are more curved to match the natural lines of the oem front lower bumper. I prefer the Euroteck look, hence the "worth" of the Carlsson spoiler is lower for me... especially when I can get a replica from eBay for $250.

If it were me, I wouldn't break into the Carlsson factory and steal their mold, I would simply buy one of their spoilers and then make my own mold. Same thing happens with the AMG copy trunk spoilers... they actually even have the AMG logo and part number info on the underside of the spoiler.
