Seems like I hit something on the freeway to work... is this something worth fixing? Is it even fixable? Or just replace..?

Pretty bummed out.. open to your guys’ suggestions/recommendations!

the black faux carbon splitter? it's relatively cheap from the dealer and ultimately up to you if it bothers you enough. You can buy a replacement and just keep it on hand and just not worry about it until it gets worse.

Heh, keep it until you hit something again. Probably will reoccur, so, eh.

It's probably going to happen again.....keep it or paint over it a solid black so you don't see it or do they have carbon fiber tape? put some tape over it

If you have the funds, get the Mugen front lip. It will cover that.

I have tried to order an oem replacement spoiler, it seems like they are sold out and on back order. it's been months. parts guy is not sure if they will remake them. so if you can source them get them while you can.

If you want to replace the splitter, here's the OEM part number: 71102-TGH-A00

Look at online retailers for parts or your dealership. However, it seems like back order parts are a pretty common problem nowadays. I guess you can blame the non-Type R owners wanting them lol
