Default Rear lip - GFX vs Vertex?

Aren't those basically the same? Is there any difference?

they looks pretty similar. but as far as i can tell, it looks like the bottom of the gfx curves while vertex goes straight with the bumper.

gfx is much more subtle and vertex sticks out more.

The GFX is one of the hardest things I've ever had to install. Big PITA!

Both look nice. It is true, everyone rocks a gfx rear. IMHO I like the vertex rear more. What kind of front and sides are you running or planning to run?
