First off, thanks for the help in deciding on the M235i.

After driving one at the dealership, I realized it had a front lip and splitter.

Now I am one to stress out about little things - especially scraping the lip if it can do any sort of real damage.

Presumably, the fact that I drove it without noticing would mean that it's not a big issue in daily driving, but my driveway does have a little cantor in it.


So then the question is - does the lip actually provide an advantage in terms of protection? Does it protect the front underside by getting scraped before more important parts would get scraped?

Or, on the other hand, if I'm worried about scraping am I better off going without the lip? I'm assuming there is no real performance difference for daily driving.
