Question...

I broke the tabs off of the SE front lip on my IX MR. I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if so so they have a quick fix or is purchasing a whole new front lip required? Thanks.

you broke which tabs off? the ones that attach it to the car? all of them? you're SOL in that case, need a new lip.

Post up some pics so we know exactly what you are talking about. If you are talking about the where mounts to the fascia then you will need a new lip. PM me if you need one.

Certainly nothing that is replacable w/o buying the lip, but I wouldnt spend the money just because of that. I'd rig something up so it holds it on securely.
