I personally don't like lowering cars, every time you come to a speed bump or steep driveway you either A) have to slow down to a foot per hour or B) you end up scraping the whole underside/bumpers.

I guess it all depends on what matters most: Better handling which leads to a more exciting drive, or being able to go over speed bumps faster which saves time when parking :nana
actually (lol) i lowered my car and that happened quite a bit
THEN! one day when my sister was driving my car - who the hell knows why... she drives over the speed bump and normal speed.... hmmm not even close to a scrape or BAM.... so now i just drive at this set speed and no speed bump can touch me.... AHAHAHAHHA I WIN!

The concrete ones in the UK are best driven over at 39mph - anyone else notice this?

Hah, thats great. Anyway, I found something interesting today and it looks like my suspension setup will be coming soon. I found a nice hole in my front right (passenger side) shock. Yeah, it's pretty big too.
