Applied some clear helicopter tape on the underside of my front spoiler. I had an incident last week coming out of a gas station and slightly scraped the underside. It was just enough of an incline to touch the road. I was already committed and couldn't reverse due to other cars behind me. I could kick myself :-(

I touched it up with some Doctor color chip paint then applied the tape. This might help reduce the damage if a next time happens.

Kzonts was it the front under chin aero thingie? Or the actual front fascia?

Sucks tho I have some places I go to and constantly scrape that front. As long as it's not paint I am usually okay.

Problem I have is my driveway incline and a hill on the road causes scraping issues depending on who is parked on the street. Oh and the storm drain I also have to maneuver around to not get a fast dip lol

Such is life.

Or you know you could part out and get a new varis/nismo/amuse front kit :p

It's on the underside where the RED dot is on the pic. You can't see it unless you look under. So I applied some tape all along the underside. Maybe it will reduce the damage if and when I become stupid again. :icon17:

I just got this installed a few months ago and it wasn't cheap. And my car is not lowered, otherwise it would have been much worse.

Bought these tips from another member last week. Came in today, and swapped them out.

Love these tips. I chuckle when I see them though. I was in a car corral at a Grand Am race a few years ago where someone had tips like this on a GTR. A couple of the guys thought they were messed up because they were "burnt". I had to explain that they were supposed to look like that. :inoutroflpuke:
