Default Getting into a Scrape

At the end of my street a steep hill descends to an intersection. My C4S scrapes alphalt almost every time I make the turn at the end of the street. The rubber/plastic underneath the bumper is looking pretty ragged. Anyone come up something to protect the bumper protector?
Thanks

i assume u try to enter it in an angle... if yes, there is really nothing u can do. the design of that piece is really good though which u just need to replace it. buy an extra lip to put it into garage. trust me, that'll make u feel a lot more comfortable

I've heard it called the "fifth tire." Just replace it when it wears out

There is something called "boomerang." it's metal thingie that goes under the bumper.
I don't know how good it is. Just saw it and thought it was good idea.
