Default cracked poly lip

I found a greddy gracer polyurethane lip for a 94-95 accord for sale but it has a small crack in it. The guy hit a small dog and greddy doesnt make a lip for a 96-97 bumper so I was wating to mod one of these to fit my 96-97 bumper anywas. But my question is this lip fixable and is it even worth getting???

It's going to look goofy on a 96/97 without some mods to the center section. I have an inkling it'll probably be more than a new one to have that one fixed and modded - new ones are around $200 or so IIRC?

Greddy DID make one for the 96/97 bumper though but it is discontinued.

i know the lip needs mods to the center of it to fit properly...i know what needs to be modded on it to fit and can do that myself

my question is could that crack be easily repaired???

Haha, all I know to tell you is that all the guys I know with a Greddy buy a new one when it's cracked. ExCCord is on like his 4th Greddy lip.

My guess is he looked into having it fixed before buying a new one. Unless the lip is a crackhead price (under $50) I wouldn't get it. I'm sure you could ghetto fab fix it with fiberglass but first bump you hit would probably ruin it again.
