I'VE never scraped any painted areas (probably the chin spoiler a few times though), but I think someone else may have. I took it to the dealer I bought it from for a free oil change, and as the tech was backing it out of the spot (I parked the nose downhill), he didn't let the clutch out fast enough and the car rolled forward a couple feet toward the curb. Then he stalled it. After a few attempts he finally got it out of the spot but not before I had a heart attack and wept like a little girl...
There didn't appear to be any damage and he seemed like a nice guy so I didn't say anything. |

I scrape that OEM lip spoiler every single day coming out of my condo parking...taking extreme angles on the way in, often I can avoid it but I think that lip is good for being there, good indicator
I want the Stillen Splitter for next year. Once I put my Tein's and the Stillen on, I might be complaining more

I have not scraped the bumper, but regularly scrape the two flaps that are just ahead of the front wheels. I don't mind them being there to be honest, I treat them as a warning for the actual bumper. Now, I'm not sure what it will be like with the INGS lip though.
