Spohn TQ Arm, lowered car, clearence?

I just installed my Strange 12-bolt, Spohn TQ Arm, and relocation brackets and some Eibach Pro kit springs with KYB adjustables.

Looking at the ground clearence, my Hooker LT's don't appear to be my low point any more. The Spohn TQ arm tunnel brace seems really low! I don't have my driveshaft yet(hopefully today) but I can see speed bumps are going to be an issue.

Any one else have a lowered car with Spohn TQ arm? What did you do? Skid plates or anything like that?

**Worried** PICS to follow....

I have a Spohn TA w/ Eibach springs and Bilsteins. Lowest point remains the cat conv. Have never scrapped the TA but have scrapped the cat conv brackets on some speed bumps. Hopethis helps!

I don't have cats, but this is somewhat encouraging. I avoid speed bumps even at stock height, so I plan to continue that for te most part. I need to take some measurements and make sure everything is installed as it should be and set my pinion angle now that my driveshaft is here.

I have the Spohn Torq Arm also,but my car isn't lowered. The tunnel brace is the lowest part on my SS also. Spohn was only 10 minutes from my house,but they moved earlier this year. Now they are about 30 minutes from my house. See my sig. I have all Spohn stuff underneath,including SFC. I am waiting for the STB.
