I have a Vis IX bumper and it's pretty much the same as the stock bumper with the lip molded.. Fitment is ok, but if I were to do it again, I would go with the stock bumper and BaysonR lip.. The material that these aftermarket bumpers are made from will not hold up as good as a stock one...

Can't you simply pick up a new lip, and have the stock bumper fixed/repainted?
