Might be a silly question...

but can somebody tell me the height of the E55 front spoiler (I mean the space between the floor and the lower edge of the spoiler)? I would need that information because I have a garage with a bumper at the end that should prevent a car from sliding into my waterheater. This bumper should stop the car's front wheel and I hope it won't do that to the E55's front spoiler, so I hope the car is "high enough"

Thank you very much in advance!

(It might be a silly question but a more descriptive subject line would attract more people to read your thread!)

It depends. Sometimes when I shut off the ignition and get out of the car the car lowers itself. I think if you raise the ride height the car stays up.

I looked into that before and couldn't find information about what the car is supposed to do when it is not running.

..You're right about the subject-line. I was thinking about a matching one but simply had no idea how to put this thread into a well-discribing subject line

The bumper-height is about 6" and I hope the spoiler isn't any lower than that (I wouldn't mind adjusting the ride-height before I drive into the garage
