Default removing 04 oem lip

I just bought a used 04 that has both OEM lip and wing. Thinking of removing both. Wrt the lip does anyone know if the paint on the front bumper (underneath / behind the lip) would be damaged from the install of the lip? If I take it off am I going to need to repaint?

did a search and couldn't find any info on this.

thanks in advance

I think the oem's have a rubber gasket around them so u may not need to anything but the best way is to pull it off and see whats under it

I had an OEM lip on the car for about a year and nicked the center on a parking block . Took it off and sold it there was o no damege or scrapes on the bumper

Put a Mugen lip/splitter on the car after that, took it off and there was some marks left behind from the Mugen lip/splitter. They do not use any protection on the Mugen and the OEM has double sided tape and the gasket thingy between the lip and bumper.
