It all depends if you broke the skimpy little tabs on the back of the lip that the clips go into. Tough to say without anyone looking at it, ya know. Feel your pain man...stupid $hit like that always bothers me.

Evo's don't have very good turning radius.

I actually did the same thing to my car as well. I had to get a new lip in order to get it fixed. I broke some of the pieces the lip would snap into. My car is in the shop right now because I did some other things to my fender. However, I'm not sure if they had to replace the entire bumper in order to get the lip back on. The body shop I took it too wasnt so clear on that. I seriously would doubt that though. Good Luck.
