To any basilers with low cars

So what does everyone in basil drive? A couple months back i bought a 95 240SX, and with the body kit it's very low and i've bottomed out a good number of times, soon imma have to repaint or even replace the body kid. How do you guys not kill your car going up/down curbs? Especially on poopy roads. (if any of you have low cars.)

I have a fairly low car, it's just a matter of driving carefully.

They always start fights. They dont get along man.

And i try going slow as hell, I've gotten good at angling it when im turning right out of a driveway, but turning left i find it hard to get a good angle, and end up bottoming right out. Today i was going down a curb, and did fine for the front bumper, but it was such a steep curb that the bottom of the rear passenger wheel well ended up smashing against it. It's got an ugly very noticeable scratch now

Basically just go really slow on any inclines or declines. Or you can replace/lift your body kit.

I guess you could steer clear from the curbs. Never driven a car with such little clearance on the lower end.

I never have a problem. I have a Toyota Camry Hybrid 2012.

When I used to drive a Honda Civic 2000, I had a big problem since I was a bit heavier and the car scratched the bumpers when it was near a curb. I resolved it by getting rid of all the junk in my car and using a lighter engine.

Then what was the point of even posting?
honda accord 2000 don't have much problems with it. Probally should avoid going on curbs if you have a problems with your body.

I have a Honda Civic and it's pretty low. It's okay, but sometimes, I can hear it scratching on some speed bumps and such.
I just try to drive slowly.
