ACI Front Spoiler

I recently purchased a 02 Coupe that is lower on it's own bolts one inch. My question is the car has an ACI spoiler that I would like to put on, that would bring the front on the car down atleast another 2 inches. I think it looks great, but any advise on driviblity? It's not an everyday driver, so being careful isn't a problem, however is it practical??

That being said, it does get over regular speed bumps as long as you take them at an angle. Actually, I have more of an issue with my exhaust scraping then I do the ACI.
Plus, it looks badass and is worth the hassle, even though my wife laughs at my fear of parking lot entrances

Mine is lowered with full ACI's but...I did something to help out A LOT. It's saved the fiberglass a number of times. Stainless steel splitter.

My buddy Mark (Stormrider) did the something similar to Rocky with plate aluminum. We joked that we should file the leading edge to make it sharp so that he can take out little furry animals with ease

It's saved his spoiler many times.
