These things are garbage, plus the stillen one will cost you the same since their shipping is free on them. I had one of these, they are hard solid plastic and the stillen ones are a softer plastic the flexes and bends. Just buy the stillen one dont be a cheapazz, like they say you get what you pay for ddddduuuuuuuuurrrrrrrr

I just had to email the seller and tell him to correct his advertisement as it if false 00-01 & 02-03 have totally different bumpers so his lip will never fit all the model years he has stated ... go with the Stillen for quality and proper fitment, you won't be disappointed.

Ya you will be doing a lot of grinding in order to get that thing to fit. I know it looks nice, but there's a lot of time & work involved. I put the same one on my car and I had to dremel it to death to get it to fit.
If I ever have to replace it, I will be going sith a Stillen one next time.

if you want a flexible one that you can scrape to hell, has exact fitment, is relatively easy to install, and it won't break too easily, go stillen. I, on the other hand went for that plastic one over a year ago, and am rather happy(no breaking yet, no dremel needed to put it on, just some elbow grease). My car is lowered, and has been for years, so I drive in such a way so as to not break the lip. The bottom corners of my lip have been scraped a hell of a lot, and no cracks or breaks yet.
