they also make mini rail guards on the front, but are made out of delrin which is a plastic, could pair those up with the rollers, and i dont think anything would be getting touched then, under any circumstance.
Why would you lower your car to the point that it scrapes the ground ?
The front piece that you are slamming into everything supports your radiator and some other items.
Furthermore, you stand a good chance of cracking your rocker panels and fenders. The cost to repair the rocker panels is very high.

well, you can scrape the ground on a stock ride height car.
and they arent going to protect anything from slamming into a risen piece of concrete, but will distribute the weight and not directlly harm the radiator rails. they arent made for a fix, they are just made to help not scratch up your car.

You just have to be aware of where you are driving... My car stock was pretty low... Just like I watch out for curbs so I dont damage my CCW 19's , I make sure not to go 30mph over speed bumps or go off road in my vette.
It really depends on the angles that you hit (incline) going in and out of driveways or really bad roads that have ruts.
The yellow Z06 that we had earlier was so low that you could not drive it on some of the local roads that had ruts (i.e. center of roadway up and the two tire contact points lower).
I like the lowered look but if you're on the street, it's better to do a 19 / 20 package with taller tires to achieve that slammed look, then to lower your more than an inch on the stock size tires.
I'm going to be running 315 /18's on the front and 335 /18's on the rear of my project car that been in the works for about (4) years now. They are painting it now and then it'll come home and I have the interior and a bunch of wiring and a few mechanical items to sort out.
I'll probably leave the front spoiler off when I run on the street for fear that I'll bust it off.
The complete body kit is made of composite materials.
