They're not going to admit it's their fault unless they're willing to compensate you for it, which they don't seem to want to do. If they were nice they'd comp your service, but they seem like the kind of dealer that likes to charge for everything so I doubt they'd do that or anything else without you raising hell. I'm kind of curious, did they not provide a radio code when you bought the car? I always assumed that came with it. If you're the one that disconnected the battery then that's why they're charging (again, if they were a nice dealer they'd apologize for not providing the code with the car purchase but they don't seem like that kind of dealer).
Whether or not you think it's worth the hassle is up to you, personally I'd just write them a bad review and find a new dealer.
Also, where on earth did you pay $2,000 for an STi lip? They're like $5-600 shipped from Japanparts.com, at least to the US anyways...

That's hardly a fair comparison, we're talking about the absolute back of the underside of a (aftermarket) lip on a car. If I were buying it brand new with the STi lip installed and found that damage I may ask for a little more on the price or a free oil change or something but it certainly wouldn't stop me from buying the car.
