I was not worried with the bumper getting damaged or torn off, but about the toll it was doing to my under diffuser. At the daily rate of scraping, it was clear I would have to eventually replace that piece often as it gets torn up.

It's a smart way Nissan did it too, that way you don't have to replace the whole fascia. But at $350+ a pop, it is still expensive.
tjlaser - your car was what inspired me to mod mine. Rest assured I've given you credit every time someone has complimented me on my car.

Thanks for the comments. When I saw the picture of the dimpled bumper, I got worried. You can't see the diffuser scrapes unless you look under the car. It's just nerve wracking to hear that thing scrape every time I use my driveway. It's much worse than when I scraped my Touring lip.

Hopefully, that will be remedied soon.
