Slammed and Nightrider, excuse my french, but how the he)) do you get around with your car slammed like that. Are they daily drivers? There is no way I could get away with that with all of the steep entrance ramps to all the businesses around here. I'm thinking about lowering my ride, but I have an expensive carbon fiber front and soon to add some feels side skirts, but I don't want to break anything.

My car is a DD. I avoid steep drive ways, drive entries and I have driven the car enough to know and eye the speed bumps I can clear. Although in the past I have made a mistake and got stuck on one. I just sucked it up and drove it all the way, while pretending not to hear the ear-bleeding-chassis-scrapage. I have also scraped my OEM lip several times, but nothing major.

I have searched before for the lowest profile jack but could not find one that will suit my car without the use of rams.

I drive onto 2x10s, then use a harbor freight racing jack.
