My car is lowered on Eibach springs with factory struts. I barely scrape my driveway but i do it on a daily basis so my front lip is pretty scraped up on the bottom. I'm at the point i want to refinish my front lip, but i don't want to do so until i address my ride height. Is there a way to slightly raise my ride height without going back to stock springs or spending big bucks on coilovers? Maybe a rubber spacer on all four lower spring perches? Or another brand of drop spring with less drop (though i'm pretty sure Eibach has the least amount of drop)? Can anyone point me in the right direction on this?

 

driveway ramps are popular where I live. Easier than changing your springs. My neighbour has a stupid-low corvette that does fine.http://www.eco-flex.com/automotive-p...hWsaAmhV8P8HAQ

FWIW my lip is toasted, there are a couple of threads about replacement parts....perhaps the only thing available without substantial p-car tax

 

What's the height from floor to the bottom of the lip?

You could also get a cheap lip off ebay, there are some out there that look OEM but are made of a more flexible plastic, resulting in less damage when scraping... I'm sure someone here can provide a link.

 

Most of the coilovers have a top ride height about the same as the common aftermarket spring drop, so that's not even a option really from my research. My friend changed his springs and said his car was factory ride height adjustable via multiple mounting options up front. No idea if thats all 997 turbos, some, or if he got some surprise aftermarket goodies from PO.

Don't refinish the front lip. Repairs cannot hold up to the abuse the lip takes, and a new lip is cheap anyway.
