Default Anyone have experience with eBay carbon fiber splitters?

I'm thinking about picking up these splitters:

I'm just wondering if anyone has experience with these.

If so, how's the fitment? Quality of materials? Durability?

Fitment is perfect. Looks are good. Durability... not so much. The bottom is straight plastic and the bottom broke pretty much with the first scrape and the inside is all hollow. But the break is not noticeable when looking from any angle so it's fine. I wrapped mine in 3M gloss black vinyl wrap. Here are before and after. Don't have that many good pics.

Before:




AFTER:

LOL WHAT A DAY. I heard something scratching for a little while on the highway and then I saw mine flying away. Apparently one of the self-tapping screws came out the lip was hanging and one big bump and BAM the thing flew away. Now I need to remove the other side. Sigh...

I bought those exact ones, and I have had them on my car for a year with no problems. I had an auto body shop secure them with screws into the bumper.
