Default How much would you pay for a TTE lip?

I'm in the market for a 2GS TTE lip. I was just wondering how much a used one is worth. I'm keeping in mind that I will have to repaint it.

they were like 280something brand new. a painted used one could go for the same if not more. a lot of other GS's have this lip so watch the classifieds. i don't think i'd consider one now.

Material, knock offs are fiberglass. There could be other things also, I don't know.
