how far down does the sc/t kit sit off the stock bumpers?

[K WeRd]

as the title states. i have a 2 inch drop and i would like to get this kit. if someone could take some measurements for me and post them, that would be great. or if someone else has a low drop and this kit, could tell me how much clearance they have?

i know rich's car is low and has the kit.

My car is at stock height. I measured the distance from the bottom of the chin spoiler to the ground one day and I think it was around 5", maybe a little less.

That's about what mine is w/ 18" rims

I just measured the gap between the ground and my lip. At the center it's 3" and on each of the ends it's 2.75". There's a quarter inch difference because the lip has slightly warped from a year and a half of scraping everywhere I go. I have to take every speed bump at a 45 angle, I scrap about half of all driveways, and I pretty much have to plan driving routes around certain "danger" areas.

Don't let my ranting keep you from getting the kit though. I personally love the kit so much I don't mind the scraping. Plus the lip bends and flexes so you don't damage it or the rest of your car. Paint doesn't flex though;crap.

I only endure this amount of scraping because I have a combination of a 2" intrax drop, 18" rims w low profile tires, and the kit. When I had my stock wheels on it didn't scrap.

In the end you gotta ask yourself if you're willing to change your driving habits and endure a little scraping.

Here's a pic of what to expect with my setp. Luckily you can't see this standing up. I had to lay on my stomach to get this pic. You can see the slight bend and you can see the paint crack to the left of the middle post. I slammed the front on a huge interstate patch bump doing 70.

haha. thanks for the info. theres only one gas station i can get into now going straight on. i live in wisconsin so the snow is going to be hell.

[pkron05]

yeah when I move to Milwaukee the lip's comin off and the stockers are goin on for winter

[DrFabulous]

Taking the front lip off in winter ftw.... it would suck having a snowplow on front lol

[K WeRd]

yeah have the front lip 2-3 inches from the ground where it has snowed 15 inches in one afternoon... probably a good idea.

If there is 15 inches of snow, you're screwed no matter what ;crap

[K WeRd]

As much as I'd love to lower the GA, I have to be careful enough as it is at stock height. I have to back into my driveway and leave very slowly because of the hump at the end of it. Doubt I could even get to my garage if I lowered it.
