Talk to the guys over at vwvortex.com. Lots of guys over there buy new lips for the RMs. If they can't tell you of any local sources, they'll definitely be able to point you to the best place online.

Buy two staggered sets, keep the four of one size and sell the four of the second size.

Problem solved! lol

It might be a while before you find a set with only, say, 1" lip. Most people run a staggered setup with the RM's.
