I ordered this one for mine, I just haven't had it installed yet:
https://www.ebay.com/itm/For-2012-17...72.m2749.l2649

I was trying to find a urethane/ABS one given that they are more durable, but all I could find was carbon fiber ones. I liked this one because it closed up the gap under the center grill portion instead of just bridging under it as left and right sides are lower.

What I failed to notice until I received it is that only the front and outside edges are carbon fiber, the rest is fiberglass. I went back and zoomed up on the pictures in the ad to make sure they didn't pull a bait and switch deal, but the pictures show exactly what I received.

Is their logo printed in or optional (thick sticker)? Personally I would not want any logos on these lips/spoilers.

It is a thick gel like sticker that is on there when bought. I haven’t tried to remove mine but sure it’s possible.

Looks great and complements front very nicely. Personally I prefer without any sticker/s but the part looks great.

It comes with a set of bolts but without removing the bumper you will struggle to hold the nut to bolt them up. I used a bunch of self tapping hex screws (nice large heads on these) I had in the garage and spaced them out as per instruction sheet it comes with.

Look forward to seeing it! I'm close to buying this one myself, although shipping to the US is a little steep, it is still about $250 total.

Nice one! Good luck for the weekend and hope it’s a Monday delivery #priorities

I was considering all of the above but ultimately decided they would be a little more than I wanted. Was looking for as minimal and close to stock as possible with just a little pop, so I ended up fabricating my own over a couple of weekends and moulding it to fit. I liked the result so much I ended up doing all 4 sides of the 6. See attached.
