Yea of course, but its not the lips fault.


Its one of 3 things.

1) Driving habit.

2) Crappy roads

3) Both.


Not the lips fault.

some people paint the bottom matte black because it scrapes eventually for most people; not because of the lip but because of inclined roads/driveways. you can learn to drive differently onto these inclines to help minimize the risk of damage.

I scrape mine once in awhile and gives me goosebumps LOL try going through a driveway on an angle. Also backup into a parking space never go forward. Or your'll destroy your lip on one of those parking curbs.

Sorry to hear you're having issues with scraping. The lip itself isn't much lower than the vehicle, around 1/2 inch if I remember correctly. There is a little length added obviously, so that can help, but as others mentioned, just taking a little bit more time, a little less speed, and angles are your friend with speed bumps or driveways, should all be manageable.

Compounded if the vehicle is lowered (but looks so good!) Jbling700 love the maroon!
