Default Exhaust scrape?
Today while I was driving I went over a speed bump and scraped the bottom of my exhaust . Does anyone else scrape there exhaust going up driveways or over speed bumps? The funny thing my car isn't even that low rite now.

It happens. Either learn how to angle or take a different route.
