Thanks for all of your comments!! I have a question for those who do have OEM lips. Does the lip scrape on speed bumps often? I know some of the people who posted above say that they clear speed bumps without problems but I'm just looking for more comments. Thanks!

Speed bumps are fine. Many driveways are not.

If you have stock suspension you'll be sine. Just don't charge toward the driways and speed bumps. If your car is lowered you will scrape, it's just a fact of life.

I'm lowered on GC/Eibachs and I haven't had a problem. I was lowered before I got the lip so I already made it a habit to take all driveways at an angle. No problems yet. Three weeks it's still smooth underneath. *Knocks on wood*

it's about an inch lower than stock. it's not noticeable in everyday driving. take steep driveways at an angle.
