hey guys...i was curious about what you guys would do about scraping your cars (4 those who are lowered) charlotte (and north carolina in general) sucks when it comes to driveway exits. what do you guys offer as a solution? i almost already scrape as it is even with the HUGE fender gap.



see how close it is?

i go diagonal when i go into my drive way(even though it's not that low) sometimes i scratch my pipes when i go over speed bumps(the tall ones in shopping centers)...i guess there really isn't any solution

Yea, I'm really careful driving my car now.
Even though its stock height, I cant even get up my driveway
cause it will scrap, thats how bad it is.
But other speed bumps are fine if I take it at an angle.
