Your splitter is 5 inches off the ground and it scrapes? Wow, you must have a steep driveway.

I'm probably going to try for 3 inches clearance from the bottom of the air dam (will need to raise the suspension a bit to account for the shorter tires). Driving around with about 3.5 inches and you get really good at avoiding speed bumps; got some nice dents in my cats from thinking I could sneak over a sharp one. I guess that's just life with a lowered car, looking out for big potholes, sloped entrances, speed bumps, etc...

Haha it's not a big deal I just thought it was funny that people actually rated it a 1. I never really noticed that you could rate threads until recently.
