I thought Carbon Fiber was supposed to be light weight....so why does it cost 110.00 to ship? I know the box must be big, but not 110.00 big.

I don't know why everyone knocks on the Greddy lip. Yes its aggressive and looks great.. I loved mine. There were only a few c/f lips when I had my GS a while back, but definately would have rocked it!!

I think 275-330 is a great deal but dealers have them for this

I think I bought my TTE lip from Carson Toyota/Lexus maybe 3 years ago when I had special. I think it was around $250 shipped.

MDSC: You have to remember that the TTE lip is made out of polyurethane which is flexible and more resilient to cracking (vs. fiberglass and carbon fiber). I've scraped my TTE lip many times on the bottom and even had small objects hit the lip while on the freeway and it is still in very good shape.

Too bad they don't make the TTE lip in Carbon Fiber. I'd buy one.

Oh no doubt i understand its poly, its still kinda expensive for a little piece of unpainted poly, if it was painted i have no problem paying 360, but 360 is kinda steep for unpainted pice, but damn it looks good. Btw if anyone wants to get rid of their melenium silver TTE lip, hit me up
