Wait, the TTE lip is rare to get a hold of yes. But this is a Replica TTE, so i dont think it is hard to get. And if your going to get a TTE replica for 170 (not painted).

Ok soooo..Kinda funny. I came on here to get rid of one, I traded my cousin for a pair of subs for a TTE lip he had. I have 0 use for a TTE rep lip since i have an IS, not a GS but it was his birthday or whatever and I didnt want to sell him the subs outright...so...who wants it? Im in rowland hts and its available for pick up. Im not asking for a specific price but I was looking to get $200 outta my subs, and Im looking to get something close to what I wanted for the subs. PM me if interested, its just sitting here as of 2 days ago. Its a rep and it was never used.
