Question How much Front End Clearence do you have?

I finally got my ings+1 front half spoiler, USDM Nismo sides, and USDM Nismo rear under spoilers installed on my 06 White Z. I will post some pics soon this weekend when I get a chance to wash my car.

I was wondering how much front end clearance do most other moded Z owners have at the front end.

Model: 2006 White Grand Touring
Front Suspension: Stock
Front Wheel/Tire: Stock 18" Rays with 245/40R18 Tires
Front Kit: ings+1 LX Sport front half spoiler (Authentic)
Front Clearence: 3.75 inches




Please post your front setup and clearence.
In case anyone is wondering, my stock 2006 GT had 5.5 inches, so the drop was 1.75 inches.

Now I don't know how I can drive the Z in the winter with 3.75" at the front.

Wow that looks amazing, but i dont know how you even get around with the front being that low. I can barely get out and in my driveway at stock height/V1 lip, without tearing the lip in half.

Kaminari front lip
Car not lowered

Don't know in inches since I never measured but have to be REALLY careful pulling in and out of driveways etc that have ANY incline to them. The bottom is all scratched.
