Front lip help

So I learned something very important this weekend, never trust your friends with your car...I let my friend drive me home from the bar because i had one to many brews. She decides to drive straight into a curb when she was parking. Ripped the lip right off.

Now, my question is for those of you how have experienced this (and i know some of you have) is it possible to just buy a replacement lip? Or will the clips on the bumper be damaged? I know that a few of the clips on the side by the wheel wells were damaged before this, so im not sure if i should bother trying without the whole bumper.

I also think i want to get a beatrush undertray, i havent been running one for a while, and i feel like the plastic fender liners arent as sturdy with out it. am i just paranoid or should i just bite the bullet and get everything?

thanks.

2 sentances into this I knew you were ****ed. 3rd one solidified it...

Of course you can buy a new lip and put it on. Im sure some of the clips are messed up but you wont really know till you get in there and look. I would replace everything that is damaged. Maybe thats just me.
