I think that's false. The replicas didn't pop up until about 1-2 years after TTE discontinued the lip. It wasn't too much to begin with anyways, I think around $350 or so(when they were still distributing here). The replicas are only about $100 cheaper and of inferior material. I'm sure if they were making replicas at the same time the real TTE was readily available, most people would of opted to buy the real thing.

no i dunno why actually BTW they didnt stop selling them, they stopped importing them to the US. these were sold/made by Toyota Europe (similar to TRD in US) and this is what their site now says

well lemme know where i can get a new TTE lip or a used one with the badge because id buy it. the real deal are hard to come by. you hardly see them in the for sale section and the ones that are posted right now dont have badges. so why buy the real one with no badge for like 400 bucks when people are just gonna hate and say its fake cause it has no badge. if it came with a badge that would be different. i rather get a replica polyurethane for 180 rather pay 400 for one with no badge people gonna hate either way. idk how low you sit but i sit pretty damn low and that lip is gonna get chewed up.

if the bold is true your whole post is pointless and you will NEVER be getting this lip...fiberglass wouldnt last if u low and if you get the "replica" poly one im sure its made from inferior products and wont last either.....
IF u really want the real deal you could just wait till one pops up and ****** it up....i passed on mine BNIB for $300 delivered for a LONG time till i slowly noticed they were getting higher and higher and fewer and fewer
BTW get that real one and have someone make a badge for you....OR just stop caring what people think since YOU know its real.

Shouldn't you stop caring about people that are getting TTE rep or replicas in general? Seems all it does is make you anger/frustrated/disappointed.

This is a funny thread. Butts are getting hurt.
I could care less about the name brand. I care about the quality of the part and other than maybe a little sanding. I don't see how quality could be affected when it comes to a poly urethane strip 4" wide. Its F'in plastic.
Personally, I think the TTE lip is one of the ugliest lips you can buy. It doesn't flow with the front bumper.
There are situations where buying the real Sony camcorder vs the Cony knock off is better. But that is not always the case.
