Man I am sorry to hear that. I know how you feel man. I had just received my R34 front in the mail...took it to have it painted and the day I put it on I went to a car show. Now the next day when we were heading back home after the trophie hand outs a peice of a shredded semi truck tire flew up off the road after being hit by the van in front of me and hit my poor R34 front bumper doing about 90 mph down the interstate and smashed it. The truck tire was imbedded in my front.
Needless to say I had some fiberglassing to do on that bumper. Its fixed now but I know how you feel.
Just take a deep breath and just think...at least it didn't crack your front too.

Take advantage of the broken lip if you can...do what I did lol...some liked it and some didnt...I couldnt take the bad criticism so I took it off. I ended up selling the lip like it was cut up like that to some guy here on 2gnt for $70 shipped

Yeah its sickening to break one. I had my first one for about a month before it broke, my second one about 5 months, and this third one for over a year and a half. Can you say LEARNING CURVE?
I have to be really careful, but sometimes I lose concentration and whack something good. It always sounds worse than it ususally is tho.

Those lips don't even sound like they are worth the hassle. All I hear about them is that they break to damn easy. I thought cf was stronger then that. HMMMM

shuwa posted a few pics over at kaptainmykes on how he repaired his lip. not sure if it will help or not, but read this thread (it will take a few pages to get to the info, lol):
i think the pics are posted around page 3-4. on a side note, uber is cleaning up that section, and may be splitting a bunch of threads into appropriate mini-threads, so if the link doesnt work let me know.

he has silver rims, not black ones.
upon closer inspection of that picture, its a photoshop. you can kind of tell from looking at the wheels that something is off. then look inside the cockpit and you can see that the dash and pillar pod are on the right side.
