There is a "teflon-guard" thing they make. I'm not exactly sure what it is called. IF you watch Monster garage on Discovery Channel, Jesse JAmes used it in the episode with the Terminatior 3 truck (toyota tundra)... They made the whole passenger side into one big door that opens up.. and a tommy gate comes down with a motorcycle. TO prevent sparks from the tommy-gate... they used the teflon-guard thing to rub on the road. I heard it's pretty cheap and you can get it at home improvement stores like Home Depot.
Wow... you're gonna spend a bunch of money on something to protect something else that cost a bunch of money??? The double sided tape and aluminum plate or even wood is a good idea from above. The splitter, if installed correctly (slightly lower in the front) will only make the front lower- and then you run the risk of the splitter lip catching on something and ripping off the front lip. Ask me how many times I've accidentally run into a parking barrier with my splitter on, thinking I had enough room. a couple of times the splitter popped off (but didn't take the lip with it, thankfully).
I can't even approach my driveway without scraping- unless I pull in backawards. Then it's no problem. If I need to be head-in (to get into my garage) I just do my turning around on the driveway.

also, with the straight across design, you're going to have issues with fitment because of where our two tow-hooks are located..... I think it's gonna look funny if clearance wasn't cut out

well i might be getting rid of my eibachs and getting the Tein SS. How much lower is my car acutally gonna be?? When u adjust the dampners, I heard ur car doesnt actually raise, the quality of the ride adjusts
really his car wont make his car lower and it will do what he is lookin 4 ! protect his bumper! because i think he would rather hit his splitter than his front bumper! as soon as i install my front bumper i will take some pics ok! sometime this week!
