All kidding aside, it happens. My tC had so many scrapes on the bottom from being lowered. I learned real quick, if you're gonna have a lower car you have got to be careful, and think more often of where you're headed.

gave up keeping paint pristine as soon as I drove off the lot.

Mines been banged up and torn open (fucking father parking into exposed rebar). Gave up a long time ago.

Just try to avoid it and be more conscience of it.

I took a steep speed bump at an angle at 5 mph and scraped a bit under the front of the bumper. Shit is inevitable. I want to lower my baby but I can't imagine how often I'd scrape. Too many shitty roads in socal.

Local mechanic mentioned that instead of installing a backup camera, that you could put the same small thing on the front of the car and help avoid scraping. Haven't done it yet, but if I lower, I'll definitely be thinking about it. :)

Mine was scraped (very lightly) when I bought it. Pointed it out to my dealer and they offered to repaint it. I declined and took some other incentives (trunk mat, hat, extra oil changes, etc.) instead. Figure I'll do it myself someday and I'll save a lot of energy not kicking my own butt!

I had a stone hit my bonnet and dint it and the windscreen is chipped all from one stone... And my car was only four days old :(
