How we all do; a lot of angle , some bumper/lip flex, some scrape sometimes, and full commitment

I drive really carefully, look for road imperfections and watch the cars up ahead how they react to bumps/dips. After awhile, you'll get used to the scraping but you have to know when to stop (limits of the bumper/lip). I have the corners fastened with medium thick zip ties (strong enough to hold the bumper but will snap when there's excessive pressure). Depending on the lip and how it's mounted, sometimes it's best to back out of driveways when possible because you get more angle and can pull forward to exit once half of the car is on the street. My friend might have video of me leaving a steep driveway.

Thanks! The lip is FG but we used a lot of bondo to mold it. I'll either go back to the TRD lips or try and mold a PU in conjunction with the TRD for more flex haha.

Lip looks sick Danny! so even when you over speed bumps or driveways it bends and doesnt get damaged.
