Sometimes when I park the fron tof the acr hangs over the curb. The black flexible piece thant hangs sometimes rushes against teh curb. With the lower front lip for the body kit, does it hang signifiacantly lower than the stock bumper, or lower at all? Would this be an added concern of driving it straight into a curb and cracking it? Any thoughts?

I never (even before the lip was installed) come that close to the curb or those cement barriers in parking stalls. You probably would hit the air dam piece before you hit the lip because it (the air dam) hangs lower. My last car had a low front as well so I just got accustomed to not pulling in so far. Hope this helps!

I got used to parking farther away from curbs and concrete blocks.

Take care not to break the air dam. The TL engine is a bottom cooled engine, meaning it needs the air forced up to it from the bottom, and that is the purpose of the air dam.

I have the kit installed, so although the front spoiler is not "much" lower, and in the center of the front bumper is not that low at all, I still back into parking spots. The clearance is much higher in the back, so I'm not concerned about scraping. However, when I do have to park nose first, I take care to make sure that I park well away from the concrete blocks.

To answer the original question, the air dam is still the lowest part of your car in the front, whether you have the kit installed or not, so that should not make much of a difference. I guess you eventually just get used to parking farther away than before (I still scrape the air dam once in a while on a steep driveway if I don't enter at an angle).

Sometimes in the parking lots.. Most of the time try backing in.
