Default Carbon Fiber lip spoiler for RS7

Have a '15 Phantom Black with the full Carbon Optic Trim Package. Looking to see if anyone has installed a carbon fiber lip spoiler on their car (see link below). I was in my dealership earlier this week and they had an S8 Plus with the carbon lip spoiler on the car. It looked great.

I would like it to be CF to match the rest of the CF on the car. I read that ABT has one, but they want an arm and a leg for it. I know CF is not cheap, but that seems to be overpriced for what I am willing to spend. Anyone aware of, or buy, any other, such as the one below?

Thanks!

That looks great on the Prism silver. How much is ABT asking for it?

Default So you have an 120k car and....

You'd put that 150.00 piece of **** on your car? Don't even think about it... It would never see the light of day on my 72k A7plus ;-)

If you want the lip that bad, spend the 1500.
IMHO

at $150 you got nothing to lose. :-)

Altough, if i remember correctly the stuff from china, if not bought right can fade, crack and discolor over time. You can always buy it and take it off if you don't like.

Appreciate the feedback. The link attached to the $150 piece was meant to serve as an example of another vendor other than ABT, and their $1500 tag... was looking to see if anyone else knew of any other vendors.

Not going to spend $1500 for a tail lip spoiler. Affordability not being the concern here, I do not believe it is worth that. Not that desperate to have one
