i agree... where can you find one "extremely cheap"

also, what's the point of just having the rear lip?

i agree...rear lip wouldnt look right without the front...at least the 02-03 has stock side skirts or it would look really bad

Some have had bad experience with these and some, like myself, have not. I've had mine for about four and change with no worries. Then again my exhaust isn't sitting right on it either.

For the price though you can't go wrong. ****... buy a couple and go and sell them in the 5 Gen Section

I think it needs to be clarified though that picture of that rear lip in link IS NOT an AE Lip.

Also, the only way to crack ABS plastic is it being hit as far as I know, so one of those on the rear, really shouldn't be knocked around much so you should be good.

BTW looking around on that website they have insanely cheap stuff, 380 for a CF hood!!!!!!!! Guess what I'm getting
