My car is lowered. But not even THAT lowered and I scraped pretty bad twice yesterday trying to get up this ramp and back down. What is it that I'm scraping? I kind of got stuck and had to step on the gas to get it up I'm really paranoid that I've messed some stuff up underneath there and I know I won't really know till I Jack it up but I don't have the time to do that rn.

Most likely the cats and rest of the exhaust in that midsection. Don't be sad. I scrape all the time. Had it on a lift the other day and saw all my past scrapey times. No biggie.

Nah, that's way higher up. Plus, you'd know that really quickly from the seized engine that would come soon after.

Are new member really this lame?
The answer is...get off your azz and look under your car! Any answers you get here will be nothing more than a guess. In the time it took to post this useless thread you could have had your answer!

I actually had an accident regarding the scraping on the flange that connects the Y pipe to the rest of the exhaust. A big metal plate that was supposed to be bolted onto the road came up and snagged the flange and pulled the whole thing back and stretched out the resonators. After it was replaced, I had the guy install it higher and also he grinded the flange down a bit. This helped quite a bit on speed bumps.

Lol at his "no" reply
There is no way anyone can know what he just scraped..
All we know is he's not "that" low. Like that helps lol

OP try to listen where It comes from and check yourself. Way too many possibilities here

You guys are probably hitting the rear tunnel stay (W brace). That was the only part of the bottom of my G that was mangled.
