Default Value of GFX Front Lip?

Hey CL... I was wondering what a gfx front lip would be worth in brand new condition(freshly repainted). I know someone with who has one in rough shape who is willing to part ways with it for a pretty reasonable price. I would buy it, paint it, and sell it since I already have one on my car. Any help would be greatly appreciated! It will be for sale here once painted.

Thanks!

Maybe $200 I would say. People are cheap and unless someone REALLY wants the GFX lip they can go on eBay and buy some rep of almost any lip including the GFX.

Not worth the troubles (IMHO) unless you have access to a really cheap shop for the repair and re-paint. For reference, there is an online place have factory painted front lips for about $353 plus shipping

I just picked up a used authentic GFX lip painted already to match my SGM for $130.

Depending on how much you are getting it for it may not be worth the hassle to take it from "rough shape" to "new condition and freshly painted". If anything i'd keep it around the garage for future use or selling as is.

I am glad I bought mine 6 years ago and paid $63 from swell. Should have bought many more. It is not worth the trouble for possible a few bucks.

Good score! I had mine replaced by insurance for a grand total of $501.xx shipped from Sewell before they closed down the website WITH my CL discount. I just love the excellent fitment of the OEM pieces!
