This is why I'm only purchasing a lip kit that can be had stateside. This way I can always replace then quick.

Ouch that Mines front lip is $$$$... consider evo-r for a cheaper option, or go Top Secret

Varis is really sick and it's not on everybody's cars like the the Sunline.

I think varis has the most ground clearance the sunline probably has the least. I haven't had any issues with mine. Maybe you can get it fixed and just paint the cf part black.
