I've scratched my OEM up pretty bad. Only the bottom, and it's not noticable.

HAHA rs lip...I never scratched with that cept maybe 2 or 3 times for the year+ I had it...I'm pretty low too

The GReddy lip I now have though...I still don't scratch as much but I do scratch a little more than my RS lip.

If you know how to drive a dropped car, you won't scratch with the RS lip unless the driveway is freakin huge...or you're slammmed to the ground.

I only scrape when I'm being careless... the OEM lip was not that low. I just switched to a WW RS front lip and I underestimated how low it really was, so I scratched pretty bad the first time trying to get up my driveway.

Just out of curiosity, what colour is your lude? (Just trying to paint a mental picture of your car and you from the picture of yourself from the other thread)
