You can tell the difference between the two, even though the factory lip is not very detailed in the bottom picture. I don't have any great shots up close of it on this computer. The factory lip is more recessed under the bumper and doesn't hang as low, but it's much stiffer, so if you scrape it, you know it. But it does it's job very well, as the bottom of this second bumper has no knicks on it yet, whereas the bottom of my first bumper was all torched from curbs and knicks.
Hope this helps.

That's great info, how much did the stock lip go for? HD has a sale I would like to compare prices plus I would modify the HD one any way but since you had the HD besides being softer are they any complaints on either of the two?
