MG4 Plastic lower lip replacement

[Driver23]

Hey guys, first post here, hoped it would be something better since I love the car.

I crashed into a tree like an idiot while parking, completely my fault, i did not sleep the night before.....

Since the damage is confined to the lower lip. I plan on replacing the part anyway since its just plastic, but the car is a leased car, so i was wondering if you think i can delay the repair a little bit to nearer to the end of my lease date (just incase i repair it and somehow crash again like an idiot), and to just try to cover it up with something or somehow try to weld the plastic and repair it up until that date?

Or do you think damage in that area could cause structural issues and should be fixed ASAP?

Thank you.

It's just cosmetic damage, not structural @Driver23, but if it was mine I'd want it repaired as soon as possible, and the part is under £100 to buy, so just do it, and be more careful with your parking in future.

Do you not think the plastic could be salvaged in any way?

or does plastic not remold like that...

I don't think it's worth repairing, just get a new one > MG4 lower grille.

Maybe grab one and swap it nearer end of lease if you are not worried about it for now.

As Chris says, if it doesn't bother you and you think you might do it again, leave it.
But as Clive says, no way, could I leave it like that, it would be fixed ASAP.

And.
