there is nothing wrong with it, just because its cheap.

its not the flexible poly lip you get from stillen, so the first time you nail a curb that will crack because its ABS plastic.

and as mentioned above this will only fit 00-01

I have it, it doesnt fit quite as good as the stillen lips do. I had to do some trimming on mine and the part where its supposed to cover the fog lights look like crap. Save your money and get a stillen. I dont like my ABS lip.

It can take hits, of course none at anything over 10mph.

"This looks like it is off of the 30th Anniversary Edition."
