Default anybody familiar with JP front lips?

Reason why I am asking is because a lot of people get confused when referring to JP or JP (Junction Produce)

Yay or nay? Anybody know where its made? America? Japan? never heard of this company thats why I am asking..

Not a fan of that lip (or that kit) at all... It reminds me of something Veilside would build which is usually 100% of the time is overkill.

it doesnt look overkill to me honestly. It remind me of the stock bumper but a little more emphasized on the sides of the bumper.

I would assume most people here reffer to JP as Junction Produce but that JP kit is "Japan Products" not Junction Produce. Personally I think anything from JP (Japan Products) looks ricey as hell. just judging from the website and the applications I don't think they are Japanese reguardless of what they say in the company info. But thats just me

I dont think it looks bad but for the price i personally wouldnt do it. ppl are always selling their TTE lips which i like better and most of the time the lips are cheaper. But i dont think it would be a bad move.

i do kind of like that lip. But of course, there would be modifications made. I was going to shave off the center lip area to emphasis the sides to stick out. I believe the would make it look way more aggressive and stylish..what do you guys think>
