Ripped my Hartge lip spoiler apart! =(

As per title, I had a little dog fight with a carpark ramp today, and the ramp won it!

Now, car looks very naked without the lip, so looking for replacement, what do you guys think on the following:

1 - New splitter to replace the old
2 - 1M Front bumper + lip
3 - M3 Front bumper + lip
4 - New corner splitters as opposed to the full width splitter and avoid future engagements with those stupid ramps again
5 - Leave as is, as the M-Tech bumper looks good as it is

Pics attached to show the remains...

Advice please guys!

1M Front Bumper + lip would be really nice...but you have to make your wheels & suspension more aggressive. But if you want to keep your wheels as it is, then I suggest to add just the corner splitters.

Was actually going to get the wheels to sit out a bit more using spacers, though the rear arches can be an issue due to it being too hard to roll back, front seems fine, only have around 10mm rear and 15mm front to play with, without dialling in too much negative camber to suffice for the track widening.

I dont think I can touch the suspension too much more, in Hong Kong here, the carparks are very unforgiving, tight, and the ramps are generally very steep, hence how this happened, t'was a day waiting to happen.....
