Sometimes it's unavoidable, but your approach angle can make a big difference. Give that a try (hit any type of incline/decline/speedbump at a 45 degree angle or so). Usually what's scraping is the undermost part of the front lip which isn't too big of a deal, but it's still never a good feeling to scrape.
on the GT3 its the rear diffuser
the fins scrape even more when you use the FAL..
Kind of like a teeter toddler, the front goes up the back comes down..
So at least you have a choice which end to scrape..
No FAL scrape the front with FAL scrape the rear.
you cant win!
It’s my fear also. I scraped my Taycan a few times and am trying to think proactively about my upcoming 992.2. Won’t be getting the FAL unfortunately. In the meantime I already purchased Sliplo (google that) and plan to install this under the front lip. Reviews are really good. Beyond that, it’s all about the angle you take.
I have FAL and love it. The GPS memory works great too. That said I still scraped the plastic lip within a couple weeks of delivery. I’ve realized it’s there to get scraped - cheap and easy to replace once it gets especially ugly. SoCal makes it impossible to avoid scraping completely. Have to come to terms with your plastic front lip not being pristine.
So, with all the years i've spent driving modified vehicles trying to save either the front spoiler, under the front bumper or undercarriage, i've found invasive driving, hittin them angles & when all else fails SlipLos
I find this really interesting. My GTS doesn't scrape (no FAL). My Spyder is even lower, and that doesn't scrape either. I just had the Spyder on my lift for an oil change. I inspected the lip while it was up. No scrapes. There are roads that I frequent with speed humps. I traverse them at 15-20 mph without a scrape. I guess it all depends on the local roads and terrain.
