hmm so i dropped it 1.5 in the front, 1.2 in the back, whats your drop at? mine is scraping in the front over some bumps driveways, etc.. i feel horrible especially when i look under the front bumper, its really scratched.. , this is normal for all people with lower cars right? LOL.. makes me a lil ****, but i guess if no one can see it then its all good? I mean i definitely like the drop, it looks really nice but it just hurts my heart looking under or feeling under my bumper

I don't think a 1.5~ drop should be scraping that much. I dropped my car more than that, and I don't scrape. Just take it easy on bumps and driveways and stuff. Maybe tighten up your dampening too?

Yes its normal. Folks don't talk about it so people can learn first hand what happens lol. Go slower over said bumps and driveways

I can hear it scrape a little minor, when going into drive ways and such and i looked underneath today and its scratched up lol

I say u gotta change your driving habits. that is the first thing I noticed after got my springs installed and went over a few bumps driving like a beast, now I drive more careful and always on the lookout for holes in the road.

Im like right at 2 inches of drop and I'm annoyed that I don't scrape! Scraping makes me smile, its called status hahaha.

Anyway you just need to learn to approach slowly and at angles~

mike51O

or when im driving really fast on the free way i hear scrape sometimes.. now thats just normal right? lol... is there anything you can buy such as a rubber peice or something alike that goes under your front bumper for protector of any sort?

DenIS250

lol I'm nowhere as low as you or many of the peeps here but it sounds like they all have gotten used to the scrapping sound btw my springs settled a bit after a couple weeks and they seemed a lil lower to me so I would not be surprised if you go lower in week or two

I think what you're hearing is the tire rubbing against the lining.

Scraping is part of living the lowered life.

scraping driving straight with a 1.5" drop? You have a full kit or something? I think youre just hearing your tire rub against your fender liner

Scraping is a way of life homie!!! GET USED TO IT! You're not that low, I saw it. You have to learn how to drive lowered now. Rubbing on the inner liner is normal till you rub through it.

like everyone else say, you'll get used to the scrapings.. its worth it!

This looks like a 1.5 inch drop right? Thats pretty damm low to me.. u guys are pros i think im just a noob at driving lowered cars..

mike51O

And I totally think its worth it but is there some kinda aftermarket addon i can buy to place under the front bumper to save the paint from scratching? I think that will be totally worth it, i just don't want the paint to start cracking one day and work its way out to the front of the bumper then it will look ugly
