I can't stress that enough! Went into a dip on what i thought was a good angle and still managed to scrape off paint on the driver's side front lip!!!! Sigh.... there's no paint to salvage. How do you OCD guys deal with this.

Lets see some pics.
I have some scrapes underneath my front bumper but don't really care for it since its bound to happen and you cant see it unless your lying underneath the car.
I say don't worry about it if its not a big deal.

at least you didnt bottom out your suspension and tire dented your side fender lip like mine...my bottom lip is shredded but at least i can't see it

Get a lip...added protection

As long as it isn't an expensive lip like CF. Even so, if you hit a dip too hard, you could misalign your whole bumper.

You'll be ok. I just got my first scrape going into a dip and incline at .50mph. It'll eventually happen with **** roads.

my wife scrape the bottom of the front bumper 2 weeks into owning her E. She was upset for a week, I had to console her and tell her **** happens.

I got these on my vette, I wonder if there is a place to mount them on a C/CLK... hmm...

Don't feel bad, I hit an unmarked middle of the street storm dip and bent the inner barrels on all four wheels.

Mine is lowered, and no scrapes yet... knocks on wood

khmergod

Was going to lower mine, but changed my mind lol.

The first thing I check even on a brand new car is the lower painted front spoiler and side skirts.

Can't tell if you are serious or sarcastic.

I'll take some pics this weekend. How about you guys show the damage in yours lol. I really am thinking about getting an aftermarket lip.

How do you guys put them on? I see that some are held on by tape, how secure is that?

You know you have money to burn when you buy a $1000+ CF lip and stick it on with tape
