Default New ground effects

Just had some new ground effects installed on my 07 roadster. Only problem is i'm bottom out way to much. I'm trying to be very careful but I just seem to scratch the bottom a lot. No suspension work has been done. Is there something i can do or has anyone else had this problem?

Be real careful going over bumps?

Always go over bumps in an angle.

pics please...

and don't many manufactures consider the lip spoiler and add-on sideskirts a ground-effects package. That was the official terminology when my friend bought his RX-8 and got that stuff installed.
