I will give you my opinion. The lip may very well be cheap. However, when my car was on the lift one day, I inspected it closely. The lip is almost an integral part of the front bumper and not a simple clip on. If you are are talking about soft scrapes only, then I agree it is not necessary to get the lift. Anything more substantial than that and you risk damaging the whole front bumper. If I am to spec the car again, I would still get the lift for sure.
This.

And this. It's these kind of random situations that make the lift essential, IMHO.
