Exclamation scrape scrape! lol

Well I have an Amuse lip (very hot on silverstone) have had it for awhile and this past 2 weeks I've scraped 4 times!! The good thing is I have protective materials on the botttom of the lip to protect the lip from damage. But I have to replace each section each time its scarped. Usually its a small area on the bottom whereno on can see so nothing big but it freaks me out each time I hear that noise.....I baby my s2k

I'm glad I'm not lowered....I can't imagine lol. So how often you guys scrape your lips?

haha the other day this guy in a mini cooper went to a parking spot and parked past the curb so his bumper just scarped all over I mean all over the curb. You could hear it from several feet away. He just walked out and didn't care.....Didn't even look. I was like freaking out lol. Poor mini!

haha yeh I've never scarped it before and this past 2 weeks its like whoa...I'll calm down. Even if I didn';t have the protective materials no one would really even see the scrapes since its way on the bottom and u have to be lying down and looking under.

...but everytime you wash the car you can feel the scrapes under there. even though I drove the car 95% of the time, I found that other people caused most of the scrapes. Just be careful out there.

I scraped my lip yesterday!...grrrr!!! This is the 2nd time I scraped it. This time, it was due to the fact that I'm now on 16s also and the front tire is actually 4% smaller OD than stock (using it just cuz it was already on the wheels...my rear tire's the correct size). I think the smaller front tire decreased my ground clearance just enough to scrape this time. I felt it this morning...grrr...I hate that rough feeling. What type of protective material do you use?
