Washer Fluid leaking, scraped bottom/front bumper

I scraped the bottom-right side of my front bumper while pulling into a dark, terribly concreted driveway. Now my washer fluid tank is empty and also leaks when I try to fill it up. I'd love some help with steps on removing this bumper so I can check and see what the problem is! I'd much rather it be a leaky hose than a broken fluid reservoir!
Also, instead of repainting the whole bumper, do yall think a front lip would be a better investment while I'm getting one later anyways (OEM g37 front lip, and of course I'd be a little more careful...)?

Thanks yall,
drum

^+1 the lip will cover that up, as for the windshield reservoir check out the thread on g37 on removing the bumper for stillen intakes and it will be the same exact steps, should be easy to replace it even if it is cracked.

One of the reasons I am antsy about getting the front lip is that, as hard as I try, I am not careful enough about these front bumper concrete scrapes... without a doubt my front lip would have gotten destroyed.

The g37 OEM lip is the one I'm looking for, does anyone know where to get it less than $450?

I'm sure you can get the entire front bumper painted for less than that.
