The only time/place I scrape is pulling out the driveway onto the street due to the steepness of the driveway. No issue pulling in.

To remedy the problem, I now back out the driveway.

Here is how I fixed the problem while maintaining the function of having it as a warning device to let me know when I am too close. I use to scrape all the time now just when I am getting close.

Before AKA stock


Tool of choice



Prep



Cut



Finished
