If you're concerned about scraping anything, think about how much of a drop you have and how stiff your springs are overall -- the lower you are, the stiffer they have to be. From what I've heard, Ksport springs aren't even stiff enough to keep the car off the bumpstops with the massive drop they give, so I wouldn't trust them for a second.

an exhaust should be secured by hangers, and such. Scrapping would not occur unless your exhaust is hanging low.
With your exhaust secure in place, you'd need to drop lower than 2" to scrape on regular roads.

Most of the time I bottom out is the mud flaps.... BUT, you can do some serious damage if your city is like mine. If it dosnt look like I can make it, I dont go there, or I drive at a HUGE angle rather then taking it str8 on. I have Tokicos and Eibachs. Warpspeed Y-pipe , cattman catback SS.
Just make sure you get the stiffer hangers for the catback. I might trim my mud flaps for the summer. (no such thing as speed bumps in the winter) hehe.
