Generally, I do not scrape on most curbs (like my driveway). I typically only scrape where the angles are particularly sharp. Approach angles can make a big difference in whether you scrape or not.

The NISMO bumper has a textured black plastic piece on the bottom of the bumper that will take most of the scrapes. You'll have to lay on the ground to see them, so shouldn't detract from the appearance of the car.
