If you scrape what scrapes?

I didn't know were to post this because its not really technical.

For you lowered guys what scrapes? I am not even all that low and my exhaust scrapes every speed bump at my college no matter how much of an angle I go on.

I have hit my frame once but that was a one time occurance with an unfinished driveway, half finished road, and a bigass curb in my driveway and being forced to move my car.

I also scrape going into my garage since I have a gravel driveway right now. :roll:

Anyway what do you guys hit?

The front lip, oil pan, cat, and exhuast can are the most likely to get scraped.

my iS lip has been scraping a whole lot and is cracked at the very corner because my driveway and the drop don't get along..I have to go up it at an angle. I have raised up the front a little bit now :D

I had a little excursion at an auto-x and scratched the oil pan. very lightly..I was VERY LUCKY :shock:

I am looking into the facotry skid plate or a fabbed one in the very near future..NJ roads are really terrible!

My exhuast scrapes on some speed bumps but not all, and there are a hole bunch of little scraches and dings in the bottom of my oil pan(no holes yet, KNOCK ON WOOD) I've just got an I lip so no scraping there.

I think my oil pans safe at my height. Thank god.

My exhaust mount "tranny to exhaust".

NEVER got my tips yet but my cat and my lip take a beating sometimes. Ive thumped the frame a couple of times on some speed bumps but thats it SO FAR :?

just the lip thus far

Wow. I'm pretty low relative to you guys and I hardly ever scrape underneath the car. There are lots of fucked up parking lot entrances around here too.

When I do, it's always the exhaust. Depending on their condition, your heat shields will start to rattle soon.

They build speed bumps like mountains in Orange County. I am forever scraping the cat and frame on the things. My IS lip is constantly taking a beating on the old driveways here. The newer one have a much gentler slope to them.

Seems to be the general consensus that it's the front lip and exhaust scraping most often. This is my case. I have hit the frame once, worst feeling ever.

exhaust scraping most often. This is my case. I have hit the frame once, worst feeling ever.

BANG.. man was I mad a the construction guy who asked me to move my car into the driveway.

I always hit my oil pan on speed bumps, when I had spax kit 2.5/1.5 with bottle caps, and muffler usually from coming down from driveway.

the only time i scrape is coming over a normal looking speed bump leaving my work, and i scrape my cat ever time.
