Draging your lip???

I was wondering of anyone with a body kit and lowered suspension, have a draging problem?? If so, how bad? What kit do you have? What suspension do you have?.......I'm thinking of going sprint/kyb agx......Also, what part of the country/road conditions do you travel?

i had to take off my front lip because i had indoor parking at my apartment building and this stupid landlord wont fix this monster crack in the ramp going down. Curled the lip under my bumper once. Anyways, i have Apex springs and gave the car a 1.75 drop all around cuz my sturts and shocks are DEAD. when i put new ones in, it'll be 1.5 but as for driving on the street... scraping is not really a problem when driving... only that damn garage

I have a stillen front lip w/ sprint springs. I don't drag my lip, but I've scraped my lip from time to time, just from the crappy roads that PA have. Some of it's my fault, b/c I forget to angle the car

I remember of hearing about a honda accord that had his front lip come off while he was driving and he ended up skidding and totaling his car. Hope this don't happen to none of yall.

I'm wondering the same thing. My car will be lowered with Sprint/KYB AGX within' the next few weeks (almost have enough money for the AGX!) and I'm debating whether or not to get the STILLEN kit for this reason.

Thanks for your posts guys! I currently have the Stillen body kit and will be lowering soon. I don't drive it a whole lot. I've been driving around with a tape measure and stop, to measure at problem area's!

You will be fine, most of the time, my car is dropped like 2.5 -2.75 inches. You just have to be careful about driveways, gas stations, and those parking block thingies....

a guy with a really nice prelude in my neighborhood hit like a pothole or something , and it ripped the front bumper in half leaving a severely messed up looking prelude. Its still sitting in his driveway waiting to be fixed , around 8 months later .
