did i hit anything important?

so we got some trees cut down and paved over where they used to be to add a parking spot but because of its location i had to go in sideways, about half way in i hear scraping, the bottom of my car passenger side is scraping on the curb because of where im trying to get, i then stop, and back out before doing any more damage. did i hit anything important??

probably just the exaust... dont worry about it too much. Just be careful, I sometimes scrape, just the nature of the beast since the car is low even from the factory.

if you really hit it hard, you might've put a small dent in the exhaust... most likely, though, you only scratched it. i wouldn't worry about it.

Probably just a scratch, happens all the time to ea at school. Be careful about doing it continuously though, I managed to rip off the plastic cover that covers the steering control sensor.

Check and make sure your exhaust is still there.

ya id say your fine atleast I hope so for both you and myself.

I just got my car dropped and ive just started to learn how to take uneven ground but ive still been bottoming out and will continue as far as i can see at this rate.

correct me if im wrong but id say youd need to bottom out very often to have significant damage unless you bottom out completely at a high speed in which case youll prob. damage something first time.
im referring my statement to someone who goes very slow and bottoms out.
