Can anyone identify the original maker of these front lips?
I've been browsing for a front lip for my Z and came across two that I'm really liking, mostly because they're simple. Only problem is they appear to be cheap ebay knockoffs. I don't really want to throw my money away on poor fit and finish, so if these two lips are copied from somewhere else, can anyone identify the original makers?

I've never seen either one of those lips before... it reminds me of an Evo-R lip, but modified. Also somewhat reminds me of a Mines lip, but still not exact.

the Couture lip seems to be made by Carbon Creations
Welcome to Extreme Dimensions :: Inventory Item :: 2009-2012 Nissan 370Z Couture Vortex Front Lip Under Spoiler Air Dam - 1 Piece which as far as i know is a pretty reputable manufacturer. i did a quick search and didn't immediatley find anyone bad mouthing them. also, i had one of their hoods on my RX7 about some years ago, but think that's not worth much given how much can change in that time frame. |

The first one is a J Next front lip replica.
Not sure what the second one is a replica of or if it is even a replica of anything. I have never seen it before.

First one looks like a bad replica of the Shine Spec-S. Oh wait I just noticed the addition of the fang cover
