Wetsand, polish, clearcoat. Will not be perfect, but will look a lot better.

If you can find out what the resin is you could buy some and fix it. You will need to shave away the cracked part then clean it and apply more resin. Once it dries, sand it, wet sand it then you will have to reclear the whole lip to match.

It may be cheaper to buy another. Check around and price it out.

if its not cracked, sand down the clear, wet sand with 2000 grit, spray clear, wet sand again with 2000 grit do this like a few more times, and then use rubbing compound and polish. im in the process of doing the same thing..

won't work because the resin is cracked and chipped away. no way to fill it back in...my authentic ralliart lip has about 5 spots just like that.
