    My Body Kit Scrapes...

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    So I just purchased an Ultrasport Avant with a Body Kit on it. The dilemma though is my body kit scrapes lightly, but only when I'm backing out of the driveway.

    I go as slow as I can when backing out, and I go at an angle as well. I'm still trying to find that perfect way to back out so that it doesn't scrape, but in the meantime, are there any economic solutions to my problem? I'm not looking to raise my car or lower my driveway as I have seen for responses on other website forums. I'm looking for a cheap way that works well. Any recommendations?

    Uhm? Those two suggestions are all I got. Either take it off, have it modified at the bottom (Would look bad IMO), or raise your car up. Or just deal with the scraping...

    You could put some wood before your driveway to make it less steep...ie: at the dip. g'luck

    Hhmmm

    It doesn't take an engineering major to solve your dilemma.
