Front Lip=Scraped
I was pulling into, and then out of a friends driveway last night, and I scraped the hell out of my front lip. I can get a new one for $303.51, I really don't want to spend that kinda of money on a new front lip...

Honestly man, I'd just leave it and maybe use some touch-up paint. My car is lowered too and you cant tell at all if you're standing up and looking at the front, but once you get underneath you can see the lip is scraped to hell. I'm just leaving mine for now (touch-up paint where its noticeable from the front) and I'll just replace it if I ever need a whole new bumper.

I scraped mine a couple of times. Nothing serious, but being **** about my car I decided to touch it up. You can hardly tell that it's scuffed, and it was an easy cheap fix.

i wouldnt worry about it touch it up. honestly unless the cars on a lift or in the air no one will see it. but if you honestly are then sand it down with some 180 grit.......a high build primer(apply it) sand that prime again if needed, finish sand in 600-800 and paint the thing.

Mine has no scratches at all in a year and a half of driving. I never scraped my GTO either and it was lower than the Cobalt (until I get my Pedders springs anyway )
