I've had my 997S a little under a month, and have noticed that whenever I pull into anything but the smoothest of driveways or inclines, the little rubber "spoiler" hanging under the front bumper scrapes the road. Will it be problematic for this to happen too often? In the event that it gets seriously damaged, is it an easy replacement?
I was also wondering which torx screwdriver I needed to get the license plate bolts off. I was detailing the car the other day and discovered, much to my chagrin, that my phillips screwdriver would not be appropriate for removing these screws. I went to Home Depot to try and buy the right tool, but none of the salespeople could locate a torx screwdriver for me, much less help me find the right number. Thanks in advance for your help.

Buy a set of angled torx wrenches. They usually come in a plastic holder like allen wrenches and should cost no more than $5, especially at a Harbor Freight store.

I treat it as an early warning audible signal that lets me know not to take that grade too fast.
