Grounding out

Hey,

Just wondered what sort of issues folk have had with grounding out at the front of the car, it looks like 3200, 4200 shouldn't be too bad but the GS looks to have a big dirty chin spoiler that might cause me some serious issues.

Car park at home isn't exactly the easiest to get in to and generally I have to reverse in to it in the GTA because of the abysmal turning circle (1.7 turns lock to lock), on the way out if I don;t get the angle just right the bumper can scrape the ground.

My GTA is lowered, not by a great deal though, so wondering how easy it is to scuff the front of a Maser on the tarmac when exiting steep junctions and the like.

Cheers

Sean

I lent a GS for a weekend and we had some viscous speed bumps but was OK......

GD...not worried about the front spoiler...its hitting the lowest point of the exhaust, not far from the delicate catalyst you should be concerned about!!!

As Parisien says, the front is manageable, though you do have to be careful with ramps and stuff.
