A little help with scraping ..
A little help with scraping .. Okay guys, I didn't know where exactly to post this but thought I would try here first. I have a 99 T/A lowered with the Koni/strano setup. I love the height and look but my driveway slopes down just a little bit where it meets the street and it goes down hill from there. My front bumper is always scraping! So heres what I was thinking or maybe looking for. Unless anyone else thinks of something for this problem .. Like a rubber something down there that flows with the bottom of the bumper and thats what will scrap instead of grinding my bumper down. I am about to get my front bumper repainted and I definatley want to do something about this after I do it. Any thoughts or suggestions would be great !!
Thanks

The thing is I do use the "angle" technique and it still scrapes!
I am not a big fan of splitters on our cars but might check it out. But then the splitter will be lower than the bumper and still scrape the heck out of that more.
Thanks for the replys guys im up to hear any suggestions!

I was thinking about getting rubber circles .. maybe like ones you put on the bottom of things so it doesnt slide/scratch w/e and run them across the front bumper ... just an idea ..

Would be hard to get them to stay on just by adhesive. A driveway will rip them off unless you mount them with a bolt.

Get some gravel hard pack and fill in the low part in your driveway where it meets the street. Prob won't look too pretty, but it works. I have a rock driveway, so I laid down hard pack with some rocks over it. Worked mint.
Thanks
OP just try maybe tracking down some kind of thick lexan and mount it with a strong mounting tape. Would be similar to what a splitter would do just not have the look. If you don't wanna mess with your drive and can't pull in at an angle, about all you can do is throw something plastic like under your bumper to take the hit instead.
