I've been running swift with the front chin for almost 2 yrs, the chin still looks good up front. It get scrape almost everytime i'm at bump / taking it at 45 deg angle. I've even scrape my flexible joint on the stock exhaust / underbody - cut & replace it couple of time. Yes it only drop on Swift, we have some high+short bumper here in Malaysia. Cant even imagine dropping any lower than swift..lol

Don't take out the wind deflectors it bends anyway so it won't really hurt if you scrape.
You can't have it all in life...You lowered it so expect the worst.
It would be really hard to drive it if its your DD.
I do have an ARK grip but never scrape it yet.
I usually plan my route if Im using the Z to avoid high speed bumps.
Its really a PAIN but thats the price you pay for looking good.
