NEWBIE/FIRST POST Question to all those out there w/ ASPEC kits and/or lowered, do you scrape often and if so how much damage have you ever incurred ??? thinking abouting lowering, then A-spec kit but did'nt want it f'ed up after spending all that money.

I have the Aspec kit and am lowered on Eibach springs (1" all around)... I never scrape but you do have to be careful when parking. If you pull too far in, you WILL scrape against the concrete bar.

I agree, I have the a spec kit also and you need to be VERY carful parking. Also my driveway is uphill so when i pull in or out I have to do so at an angle. If I try to pull in or back out straight I will scrape. If you are parking on grass be carful of rocks sticking up too.....

With 700 posts, I'd hope I wouldn't do/say something THAT retarded. Haha

Sorry for all this BS, OP.

I'm not even lowered and I have to enter my driveway diagonally or I"ll scrape a bit. It's a steep driveway though.

Even before I was dropped, I'd always scrape the front strake (not the bumper) going up driveways. I still don't really scrape my bumper at all, just the strake.
