Not so for the stock height folks, but for us lowered, slammed, front lipp-ed out Lexus.



Remember all those times we gambled on a driveway and lost? You know, we slowed down to a snail's crawl (holding up traffic)? Then we angled out the hell out of the car to get one wheel up/down at a time, like we were driving cross-eyed or something? Then just as we thought we conquered the evil driveway, then comes the most insidious and horrible sounding scrape ever (worse than nails on a chalk board) that just seems to carry miles and miles away, and no doubt it's always at a place where tons of people are looking and are now laughing. The sound initially makes your body wince and then your head hurts, as all you can think of now is $$$$$$! My F is only a weekend car, but if I keep scraping at this rate, it might look like a daily driver.

I think the two inch bumper protector underneath right at the edge, but beyond eye-sight, would be perfect. The tapered edge of the strip, the ability to color match, the 2” size is perfect. The 2” is perfect, b/c that’s the initial underside of the lip that is always the issue. It’s all in how tough the glue is for this thing. If you’re worried that the whole thing might come off, then I guess you can cut it into inch sections so that only a small piece would come off. I’m assuming that the glue is good, as it is made as a body molding that will be battered by the weather and wind.

Just ordered the color sample for $2.95.

Huey,
You'd be surprised how quickly this will get worn out. I know this is an expensive fix, but it works great for me. It's a video link.

It's definitely a huge risk with the scraping and all. Parking blocks, driveways, dips....they're all horrible to deal with. I thought the WALD front bumper was low, but your Artisan Spirits is barely above the ground. It looks damn nice, though!

You're right John. It would only be a temporary fix with the bumper pieces. I am now seriously thinking about your setup. Either that or the Air Runner System.

Thanks. It's hard to raise the car back up, even a little, after it's at a height you love. So you have to find other alternatives.....we'll see.

I feel like this is part of the reason as to why I wouldnt want to be slammed....It does look awesome no doubt, but after seeing my brothers friends slammed nsx hit a not so high laying tire on the freeway, I kinda dont want to have to replace it all....

PurduePete

You take chances with everything....as long as you can handle the risk....it is what it is.

The beautiful, amazing stock suspension is why I moved on to an ISF. It's staying stock height.

ps even with those bumper guards your still gonna rip up that bumper up on curbs/parking stops
