lip kit question

whats goin on guys
so like yea i got a base model 09 camry,luuvvv it haha, and am looking for a lip kit to install, well the whole body kit but the thing is, the bottom of my front bumper is scratched pretty good down to the plastic cuz of this stupid driveway i underestimated lol.thats the only time i've scratched it, i've been careful every where eles. how many of you would get those scratches taken care of before adding a lip kit? or would you guys just straight up add the lip kit right over it? its kinda bothering me to add a lip and hide it knowing theres big scratches on the bottom of the bumper. i kinda want to get the bumper fixed or replace before adding a lip cuz it would be cheaper to fix or replace the lip if needed and the bumper would still be safe and scratch free and new after adding the lip since it acts as a gaurd to the bumper. know what i mean? thanks =)

Well if those scratches are bothering you, why bother getting a lip kit? Its gonna get worse, and ruin your new lip kit.

Why is it that most posts from Riverside look as if they're typed by a 13 year old girl?

"so like yea", "luuvvv it", "cuz". Priceless.

Try not to order through the phone is my suggestion. I ordered through the phone at andyautosport for the cyber kits made by vision auto dynamics, but they send me the cyber kits made by extreme dimension ...
