Anyone with front lips have curb issues?

So every once in a while my wife may drive my car.

And she’s never been too keen on observing parking curbs.

My question for you guys that have lip spoilers is…does it make the car low enough to drag on a standard parking curb?

Or can you still clear one?

This is for people with standard, non lowered suspension.

I have to M Performance lip and always back into parking spaces for that very reason. What I haven't had the courage to do is allow the car to park itself yet.

Yes, that's a good way to prevent it... the lip (any) will not clear the standard parking curb/block - even w/o the lip it would come close or not clearing so I would not get close to it
