Default scrape on uphill?

I was self parking at BJ's resteraunt in Burbank and I scraped the front/bottom of my car because the slump at the end of the uphill was very steep. I looked under and the body is fine. I was just curious has anyone else scraped the bottom of their car while goin on a steep up or downhill? what do you guys think I scraped? I know Im just over reacting but I just bought my car =]
Im thinking it just scraped some plastic part on the bottom.

all the time! (dropped on tein s-techs). usually the scraping sound is from a plastic bumper guard underneath. if you look underneath youll find it, sticks out a bit.

I used to have the S-tech springs on mine and it would scrape all the time. Usually the front plastic bumper guard but it would sometimes also scrape in the rear when backing out of my driveway.

The most sickening sound was when it would get high centered on a driveway that was steep on the front and back. It really bothered me to hit under the driver's seat.

Thus, the springs are off for winter and I'm thinking of going for the H-tech's instead.
