I got the same response when I reached out to him....minus the NW Carbon advice. I did reach out to them and they are discounting.

NW gave me 10% off which I thought was great...their prices are super competitive with what is out there...hoping quality and fitment are good.

I decided to cancel my eBay order and go with NW CH. Customer service is spectacular thus far. I'm very impressed.

I got exactly the same response from Dongsai, referring me to buy from their distributor here in Australia. The distributor pricing was way too high so I ended up ordering a dry carbon M Performance front lip from JC Sportline who have so far been great to deal with.

I bet the lip will be great. I got cold feet with the grill because of the tape application, had it been screws I would have kept my order. I wanted something more sturdy. I have a cheap eBay lip right now and it's serving its purpose just fine.

For your install, did you just push the grill all the way through as far as it goes and then screw the tabs together or is there a balancing act to it?

Received quickly and just installed CF rear Diffuser from NW CH, quality and fitment were great and price with discount was lowest I could find. Swap took about 10MIn...although it is a little terrifying yanking the old diff off my brand new ride

I ordered the front lip, side skirts, and rear winglets for around $2000 (I already had the carbon diffuser).

It look about 2 weeks to get to me after paying for the order.

I personally installed all of the pieces, which took a full day. I did the install without jacking up the car and without any special tools. I just used trim tools and a needle nose plier for unscrewing hard to reach bolts. I also did not remove ANY pieces other than the pieces I was planning to replace.

I'm happy to answer questions on how to do the install.

Anyways, here are some pictures!
Did you have to remove the original side front lips? Or do the carbon fiber parts just slip on top of them?
