I may go with the Evo-R front lip, but would be nice to have more options.

That's because they didn't pay for R&D. - How can you respect that.

I'm a bit confused, why would you want to represent someone that steals the hard work of someone else and makes money off of that?

Replica aero parts are literally ruining many companies in Japan that put out the original designed parts. People unfortunately don't hear about it much, but many of these Japanese companies are struggling due to lost profits and many of them have even gone out of business in the last few years due to the knock-off game. Just look at Ralliart; they decided last year to completely stop manufacturing upgrade parts due to the prevalence of replicas.

I don't mean to preach, but have a look at this link for proof of this:

It's easy to keep a Mine's front lip in great shape....just add an air ride suspension!
