Might give it a try, thanks. Certainly can't lower it as is. It really looks worse than it is. I bet if we had painted them black no one would say a thing. I've been over a low-water bridge at my friends house dozens of times and it has never scraped. I do go over speed bumps pretty slowly, but nothing has scraped so far.
