Nope.

I think all the UTR ones are just urethane.

If I recall VodkaRocket's wing was an oem M3 lip wing and it fit perfect. If that's true a CF lip wing for the M3 may also fit?!?

Vodka's M3 style lip looked really really clean, but it wasn't OEM. There are a bunch of M3 and M5 style lips on ebay that are in CF. The quality might be a little suspect though, so you might have to have a bodyshop tweak and install it to make it look nice.

We're talking about a lip for a sedan not a coupe. Unless you're seeing something on the intense motorsports site that I'm not seeing.

Again, I doubt the quality of the ebay stuff is any good, but they are pretty cheap. If you take it to a shop they could probably make it fit nice. Here are a couple examples:

Thanks all, I ordered one off ebay last night from vtech speed for $7 plus shipping

I am skeptical of the quality, but for the price of a few redbulls and vodka, what the heck. I'd probably feel better if I was spending $150 for the same part...

Either way if it fits and it's real CF, it's worth it.

They aren't real CF. It's either a covered with a sticker or more likely it's been through a process where they lay down the pattern on top a vat of liquid and as they pull the part out of the vat, the finish sticks to it. ) forget what it's called, someone might know.
