      aside from the damage a careless trucker caused and typical stone chips. its fine unless you lay your head on the ground and are close enough to actually see under the car..

      i have to be "cautious" everywhere.

      This isnt my first lowered car, and is actually 1"-1 1/2" higher than my last couple of cars. So its "easy" to drive.
      I typically get hung up more than bumper scrapes. When my front tires "drop" off an object, it will just sit on the frame..

      like speed bumps, driveways, uneven pavement, etc..

      This is a intersection in pittsburgh, normal speed limit through this section of the road is 35 mph.
      the crosswalks are poured cement, and the road ways were blacktop.
      I had to leave the car in first idling (wheels were spinning) get out and push the car.
      Then as it coasted away run and get back in.. (i've posted this before):

      I think that he thought you have springs. Rabbit has coilovers.

      re lowering kit

      I lowered my '04 aves with H&R sport springs. I also installed KYB OEM struts and shocks. The springs lowered the car 1.5" in front and 1.4" in rear.
