Seriously! I've been super careful and haven't scraped it, but I can see how easy it could be.

you could look into adding tiny camera on the front bumper and both side mirrors pointing down.

Just got the beatsonic front parking camera and to me its way easier to install than sensors. been backing into parking spots since i got the car and never have to do it again.

Mine is completely stock and i feel its low enough for me. not sure how you lowered people deal with curbs.

When i used to have a lowered car i would just keep mumbling to myself as i park "don't get greedy! don't get greedy!" to remind myself not to get too close lol

I always reverse park!

I use the mirrors are a guide. Fortunately, my bumper already has paint missing from the previous owner and it is black so if I kiss it, it is not a big deal. If I back into a spot, sometimes the mufflers hit but there is no damage because they're oem issue. I don't have a backup camera.

This is nothing though compared to scrapping over speedbumps though...

One solution is to install a license plate frame camera with a park assist proximity sensor that works on bluetooth like Pearl. Its designed for the rear but I don't see why it won't work if you place it in the front. I actually like these Bluetooth types using the license plate frame, as it's intrusion free and you won't have to do any homemade job on your car, inside or outside. Though you'll be hassled to connect to your phone just to park lol. This is still one of my biggest gripes about the ISF, it doesn't have park assist or side mirror tilt on reverse, both which would help save your rims and spoilers on parking. Major mess up by Lexus!

I park my car in my garage. That's easy.

Wife’s doing it by braille. Found quite a few nose scraps when I changed the oil yesterday. 🤦‍♂️

It's bound to happen. I consider myself a car guy and I have scraped my 2021 a few times. Thankfully, it's all on the underside of the car where it's invisible unless you physically get under the car or have it on a lift. No real damage.

I can't back my car into my own driveway (which is where one of the scrapes came from) because it'll scrape the front on the way in. Well, I can, but it takes a very specific angle. Agree with others that backing in is the way to go. You can even use the reverse camera to make sure you don't back in too far.
