First impressions:

Pros:
  • good price
  • Looks quality and OEM
  • Great fit
Cons
  • Color match isn't that good for my Montego so a respray is potentially on the cards
  • There was a small scratch on it which I touched up with the touch up paint kit - hard to notice it's there but more work to do to "fill" the scratch with the paint.
  • No 3M tape on the inside as written in manual and others have reported, which means I'll have to go to shop and buy some

I think you usually get what you pay for, in this case I'd rather would have had it unpainted as that's the biggest issue as color match is poor. However I've had my trunk resprayed before so I know that could be the reason and its not entirely sellers fault color won't match.

All in all, pretty happy given the price I paid shipped and painted is still 50 bucks below of unpainted item.

Wish they made pre LCI splitters too!

I'll post pics once installed. Overall, for the money hard to beat.
No 3M tape and $20 shipping? Did you get the right one? Lol
