LP640 preventing from scratching the bottom

Cousin wanted to know what can he protect his LP640 front bottom bumper with to prevent from scratching. He knows the car raises but still not enough to clear his drive way. Already hit the bottom twice and scrapped it pretty bad. You cant see it but will become a problem latter on when the paint starts chipping away. Any recommendations?

I've had installed Ventures Films - better than 3M as it doesn't have orange peel effect. They put an exra piece on the bottom edge, just incase the Lift Mechanism wasn't a sufficient rise.

I agree 100% - grade the driveway lower... Even with some form of clear bra, if it scrapes, the clear bra will just keep getting shredded.

I've seen cars with rhinoliner on the bottom of the chin spoiler. Cheap and it is by far the most durable stuff you can have put on. They have colors too so you may be able to get it kinda close to the vehicles color.

Kevlar

I have thin Kevlar pieces on the bottom of my NSX front bumper and it glides right over the pavement!

I found out that the bumper skid plates on my NSX are made out of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene.
