Front lip?

As some of you guys know, i got my g35c in may and i love the car. Well last night comnig back from work, going through another parking lot (like a mall type area, so lots of parking lots to go through to get to the back roads) and there was an area blocked off with cones, making it only one lane. I just drove around them and heard something hit my front. Nothing hard, nothing real loud, sounded like an empty water bottle or something real light. Anyways i wake up today, go look at my car (mistake one i know, i should have stopped and looked but i really though it was nothing) and the front oem lip is done. absolutely F'ed up. Front bumper has a few scratches in the area but not worth replacing. The lip is pretty much done though, all scratched up and one dent, popped out fine but a very small crack.

Anyways.... any ideas on the price of a new lip, painted? also any suggestions where to get one?
Thanks

You can get a painted OEM lip for about 300. Just look at some of the site sponsors.

look in the marketplace for one that was already painted, thats gonan be the best price. Also look at the replica ones that Klumzyee(sp?) makes, they come unpainted though.

ya as it seems i could replace the front bumper and lip for the same price as the nismo + paint.... if not a bit cheaper. idk about resale value with a non stock kit though
