That sucks man, my fiance drove my Z for a month while her car was down so she got used to driving low car. The Lexus is for her primarily, and she is one making the payments on it...but we both park it extremely careful. Half the time we are a good 3 feet from the curb when we get out and we have to go forward a bit more :P

I was so scared letting her drive my Z for first time, but she makes great money so I knew if she messed it up she would fix it.



As you can see it is pretty low, and 400rwhp.

I have curb rash all along the bottom of my front bumper that you really can't see unless the car is parked uphill toward you. With the stupid high parking bumps it's almost impossible to avoid. I've had Sewell Lexus spray it a couple of times, but it is still noticeable. I understand there is some type of under-bumper protector on the market. I'm going to look into it.

My home made bumper guard is made for this! I just need to extend it more to the sides. Mine is mainly for front parking blocks and curbs and insane dips and driveways.

This was on my Premium.



But also fit my new FSport.

I was going to get the SFP but after reading the non-removable stains problems on the IS forums, I decided to get LP.
