thanks guys.
lip hasnt even been scraped !! literally. lip has never been scraped. (the lip has protective film on it... to give you an idea of how meticulous the previous owner was).

however, i scraped the lip for its first time on saturday while loading it on the trailor. about 1/2cm under the lip. cant see it.
