If it's a light kiss the fat lip will save you money. I have been in two soft (no air bag) collisions (neither my fault) and that bumper extension absorbed the bulk of the damage. It folded in on itself as apparently designed. I got away with cheap parts from Certafit and good as new. Without the lip, I am sure airbags would have gone off and more parts were needed.
