Since Jay is selling these things for a particular price advertised as "shipped", then it seems to me that they should be shipping DDP so we don't pay any import taxes. EDIT: Typically a vendor will estimate any import taxes and build it into the price of the product they are selling, so that they are getting their money without making it "apparent" to the Customer in the form of a separate billable line item.
I'm also confused about something: Are these being shipped directly from the factory to each one of the buyers individually, or do they come to wherever Jay is actually located and he splits them down and routes them to the buyers accordingly?

@ TPete: I think Jon70Proof is mistaken....the lip he got appears to be the "VSV1" lip (i.e. Evo-R's version of the Veilside V1 lip), and NOT the Mine's lip. Hopefully either Jon or Jay will clarify that...
EDIT: Jon70Proof's lip is definitely the VSV1 style....you can see the indentation in the center top portion of the lip. Mine's lip doesn't have that.
If you order the Mine's lip, it should look like the ones in the original post.

Sick man. I actually ended up going with the Mine's lip, and I just got done test fitting it. I must admit I'm pretty blown-away by how well it fits. I would say it fits as well, if not better, than my authentic VeilSide V1 lip. My only gripe is that the center portion bows up a bit just left of center (toward the passenger side) but I think the material is flexible enough that I can get it to stick down with 3M tape. Here are a few pics:
Within the next couple weeks I will be getting a fresh paint job on my front bumper and hood, and also getting the lip clear coated.

install it as is, just wax the lip every other time you wash the car and you should be good, takes like two seconds more to wax or polish it theres plenty of clear on these lips, I had the Mine's on my 04 and it did perfect for about a year, but rock chips got the best of it and I had to have it re cleared and the shop I had do it did a great job I was trying to figure out what spray on rock chip guard they put on it after the clear but I can't seem to find it. Ill try to figure it out and let everyone know.

Sry110 i'd say just wax/polish it as others suggested. I got CF so I could paint it later down the road if being low gets the best of it. Its a good feeling knowing that you haven't paid to paint the lip yet, and when you feel as though it needs paint, then you can get it painted. At least thats my plan, haha.
The lip looks nice though, we have similar tastes when modding
