Who in here scrapes after every speed bump?
How do you guys live like that? lol.
does this damage anything major? im scraping at about 50% of the speedbumps i go over and on my driver side wheel, its always scraping against this metal piece that is pointed downward... Thinking about going a tad lower, what do ya think? this is how mine looks right now... 1 http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3301/...ccc52ef4_b.jpg 2 http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3304/...719374a2_b.jpg |
my MKIV exhaust hangs super low that you can see sparks flying on freeway bumps lol
|
I scrape my subframe pretty good on almost every speed bump I hit but I remember looking at CamberSC's subframe a while back before he got his bags and they looked way worse than mine but still didnt look like anything to worry about.
I say drop the b1tch and try to stay away from Downtown and Vegas. |
I see a speedbump as an invisible brick wall and find another way around.

I don't actually scrape often cause I take my sweet time, but it gets annoying. It's driveways and dips that get me cause I don't always have the space to maneuver. And you get an unpredictable incident once in a blue moon like when I cracked my lip. For reference my front end is about 2.75'' off the ground and my exhaust pipes are 2.5'' off the ground in the center of the car.

Sir, I think you just need to slow down over speedbumps...Either that or you have giant ass speed bumps in your neck of the woods. |
I havent taken a speed bump in a while, tend to avoid them if possible. I do however scrape going into the garage.
|
I have the same problem with my exhaust hanging a little low. I just go slow and at an angle. Sometimes blocking both lanes of traffic. You gotta do what you gotta do.
|
you actually aren't too low, sounds like you are scraping on the towing hook. You'll be fine. If it makes you feel better, my front lip scrapes on every single driveway and speed bump i encounter. You definitely have some room to go lower before it starts getting unbearable. Just go slower and more angle
|
Peter 95, your car ain't low enough to even be scraping anything. you must be just FLYING over those speed bumps, lol. you should not go lower until you learn how to drive low cars.
my oil pan scraps speed bumps on the reg, now THAT'S low. |
