my cars lowered but its not lowered really low, i hit the bottom of the bumper a little when i get into driveways or back out of driveways, is that normal to scrape the bottom of the bumper a bit when going onto a driveway or coming off of a driveway or should i raise it a bit? ill post pics later.

if you're low then yes you will scrape.. common sense. just go extremely slow into parking lots/driveways. but if you hate feeling it scrape then just raise it up.

will it be that bad that i scrape or is that pretty common for people with lowered cars? i just dont want to really raise it because i dont think its that bad, but if its gonna completely **** my bumper then ill raise it

Don't go straight in to the driveway, try to cut it at an angle then straighten out as your second tire gets over the hump... That's how I have to approach my drive and I don't scrape... Same with backing out, after your rear tires clear start to cut the wheel and exit at an angle as well. If I go straight in and out I will scrape but at an angle I clear.

Scraping is normal. You're going to have to either learn how to drive a lowered car OR raise your car up to a respectable height. That said, GO LOWER!!!!

This is one of the hazards of owning a "sports car". My Z is at stock height (not lowered) and if I do not enter or exit my driveway at the correct angle it scrapes.

I thought the whole point of having a lowered car was to turn heads and attract attention. The hideous noise from scraping the car's vital parts definitely does that.

Learn how to pull in and out. No pun intended

Lower it some more. It would look really great. Then just get another car for driving purposes.

I live in LA, I frequent the valley and the city constantly. I was forced to raise the car one inch and it made my life one million times easier...I can actually go places without worrying so much.

I still scrape here and there, but rarely.

Pulling out is for wussies lol! I also had a problem with sometimes scarping and I think my car is stock height. Reason why I say "I think" is because the last owner has nismo'd out my car before trading it in the dealership and the only upgrades I visually know of are the cat back exhaust, the cold air intake, and the flywheel that I can hear and feel. Not sure if he had the suspension upgrade. But just go into driveways at angles and go very slowly. If not then you can't really help it, it's a sports car so it will be low and low cars have a higher chance of hitting it's bottom on something. Good luck.
