i've always used a special way to fix a broken lip

1. take lip off car
2. break it in half and throw it at a wall
3. pick it up and throw it again
4. throw it in the garbage

& last but not least
5. install a NEW LIP

with the hole u got on that lip its going to be hard to fix so use my steps and it will work

cover the whole lip with blue painters tape until you could afford a new lip

yeah i know, i was just wondering if there was a fairly quick fix, cause I don't want to buy a new one when I scrape it on everything anyways, but i guess not.
