Airdamn scraping

The springs on my 91Z28 are sagging...my air damn scrapes on entering steep srives. I want to throw some Eibach pro springs on it. Eibachs will drop the front and rear a little over an inch. Makes your ride look SWEET. But, am I going to rip my air damn off from sitting lower? Seems like Eibachs are common. Anyone have any probs with this or know anythign about air damn modification possibly?

Try changing the way you enter steep drives. Take them at an angle, not head on. If you are having trouble now, the lowering springs could make it much worse.

What you have to think about though is your ride is gonna be lower becuause you are sagging so the springs won't lower you much more. also the pro-kit springs will be much stiffer not alowing it to give as much when hitting bumps and stuff so you may scrape les.... thats what happend to my car so i guess you'll just have to try it.
