Sorry for posting another video so soon, but I'm excited!
Just installed my aero lip today! Some of you have followed my troubles with this $70 eBay polyurethane lip, but I finally got it on!
Anyways, hope you like the video!

Honestly everyone has that these days.. The aero lip is such an inexpensive alternative.

I love the look and even my OEM lip was half the cost of an mtech conversion. A $70 eBay lip is a steal.

I'll get an mtech front when my lip gets destroyed but until then I'm going to enjoy this seemingly more unique look.

Nice upgrade bimmette! Looks great!

Link to lip? I'm thinking of getting a lip for my bumper (like yours) to spice up the front of my car a bit.

Or which seller did you buy from? I searched ebay and there look to be a bunch of sellers selling these lips

Also did it come painted?

Here is the link to the eBay seller. But I don't really recommend them if you want your lip perfect. It does not come painted and the first shop I sent it to ended up refusing to paint it.

You can read the problems I had:

Nice!

You should have put some double sided tape on the edges of the bumper so it can hug where the lip meets with the wheel well a little better. See in the pic below this is where I put my tape...



And there is no gap at the wheel well.

Props to you for doing it yourself though ... Next time put some cardboard on the ground so you don't lay on dirt
