Default Lowered with GT/CS bumper clearance

I got a question for those that are lowered with a GT/CS front bumper. How much clearance do you have?

My car is lowered with Roush springs and I have a Cervini's front bumper. Scraping tends to be an issue for me driving around town and it makes it difficult for when people work on my car. After it was installed, I've always suspected that the Cervini's bumper was designed for a car that isn't lowered since with the Roush springs I have 4-5" of clearance at the front.

So, I'm considering changing to a GT/CS bumper but wanted to get an idea of how much clearance it will provide.

2-3 inches maybe on eibach sportlines. I scrape if I don't exit my driveway at a 45+

Are those the springs your car is on in your sig pic? It looks higher and is actually what got me to thinking I'd be better off with the GT/CS bumper.

Thanks

No, those were Steeda Sports.

Just went and measured and I got 4.5" to the lowest point.

Thank you much!

I take it the lowest on the GT/CS is at the outer flares, the center looks like it's higher and pretty straight across.

I have 4" at the lowest point in the center and 5" at the outer flares. The center is where it's been scraping the most.
