I'm afraid in the grand scheme of things, this is a cheap lip. Comparative in price is the Kerscher lip, cheaper are JC Sportline splitters and a Hamman style eBay lip but that IS NOT a bolt on fit, you'll need a grinder, no joke haha. After that add some £££ to the price as things are about to get nasty (price wise) such as 3D Design and Slek. No doubt 3D and Slek are great looking products and worth the money for the look but damn, they're nearly £1000! You see where I'm going...

BMW tax, you got to pay it sometimes.

I'll agree, I prefer the beefier Slek lip to this most definitely but this one has grown on me considerably. For 1/4 the price I can deal with that.
