Pointy Front Bumper Flaps

I'm just wondering, did anybody scratch them yet? I was washing my car today and saw that a tip on one of them is scratched . Don't know how that happened. I don't recall going over anything high.

I know that when I pull out of my driveway, they're about 1mm or something from scratching. Just go slow where there's inclines or dips or something.

It's a fear of mine, so far they are scratchless. Watch those parking blocks.

I have come close many times because of the bad roads in Boston and my lowered suspension. Luckily, it always seems to scape the black trim piece below the bumper.

Bad luck my friend. Unfortunately, the car has a pretty long nose.
