Ran over a curb :(

mannn.... I ended up running my rear passenger side over the a curb today.. I heard a couple of clunking noises and its worrying me. I might have scrapped the underside of the side skirts than the wheel definitely went over the curb. The car drives fine, no issues, doesn't wobble or anything. Minor scrapings on the passenger rear side skirts, the wheels don't look scrached or anything. Should I be worried? Particularly about the clunking?

Thanks!

This happened in a parking lot, while taking a right turn. I was probably going idle speed if that.

Speed doesnt matter when the weight of your car is coming down on a curb. Check for damage to low hanging parts. At the least you probably just scraped a muffler.

My car was 3inches off the ground, i high centered all the time and nothing ever got damaged. These cars are actually kinda tough. So unless you drove over a boulder you should be fine.
