How often you guys scrape your front bumper?
 
LOL =)
As sad as it sounds, it happens to all of us...
The real question is how often?
Like don't you guys hate those shitty parking structures where the entrance has like the "V" shape dips?!?!

GOSH I F'KEN HATE THOSE!!!!
So how often???

12K miles, never scraped once. You just have to know how to take it.

So any advice?

Every time I drive it.

Probably 3 or 4 times a day.. making skid plates tomorrow!

Never scraped once at stock height.

Haven't scraped the bumper, but the front lip spoiler is eroding away on a daily basis.

My lip is all tore up. I've got a steep driveway and some nice speed bumps in my neighbor hood.

JZNx 08-22-2011 11:44 PM

I like how we all take this really well =)
It sounds as if its normal to scrape =)

KillerBee370 08-22-2011 11:59 PM

I couldn't care less. I was a wee tad bit miffed when I decided to leave the undertray off once after an oil change and ran up over a parking block only to back off ripping half the entire front bumper off but other than that, meh.

Meh, every day. At least it's scraping that plastic piece and not the actual bumper.

I scrape my front spoiler every time I take the z out. The worst sound is when I drive the z onto the street in the morning but .... that plastic part still looks good. :tup:

Every time I back out of my driveway my front spoiler gets it. Well, almost every time. If I get really close to the curb and turn hard just at the right time I can get it out without a scrape. Funny thing is I almost never scrape the spoiler driving in.

I usually only scrape the plastic piece under. I've scraped the bumper once or twice.

supraman626 08-23-2011 02:32 AM

i had to redo my driveway just for the Z, still scraping a tiny bit when i back out but no problems going up the driveway when i go slow. It used to break my heart but can't stress on these little things.
