I need everyones help on this one, ok here is my story. I just recently bought my rs 2.0 xB. I was dropping it off at home to go out for the night, when I hit a tire, which was dead center in the middle of the road, I couldnt move around to the left because I would of met with a head on collision with an F250. Which I think I would of lost that battle! My friend was riding my ___, so if I would of hit the brakes he would of smoked me from behind so I just slowed down and took it! Cracked my lip in the front about 1in. I dont know if I should just get a new piece, have a paint shop bondo it and paint it, or if there is any aftermarket lip kits that look good then maybe ill look into that. I just want to get it fixed cuz its a brand new car, and I hate knowing there is already a flaw on my car, even though half the people I tell say they really cant see it. I plan on lowering it soon too and getting some rims so im not sure if getting a new bumper would be a good idea considering this. I need some help asap! :pray:

I would go aftermarket. I would think that the money spent on fixing the crack, excluding paint, would be we spent on a new aftremarket lip. That's just my opinion.
