My question is, Has anyone ever considered putting "Lexan" under their ground effect? so if it does rub, it just rubs the lexan? and you can replace it whenever? I thought this might be a neat concept for some to use, it adds alittle thickness, but the stuff is dang nice for protection...
Stuff is dang near unbreakable as well.

What are your guys Thoughts on ground effects vs lowering springs?


How did you raise your car 2 inches higher? Do your tires not have less sidewall on them??
