My spoiler is not a plow..

I've an 83 280ZX and I bought it with a Kaminhari front spoiler, which has a pronounced lower shape, like a bib or protruding edge (sorry don't have a photo). Since I use 195 55 15 tires, my car is a wee bit lower, and I occasionally scrape very steep driveways if I don't drive super slowly. My wife also parked up against a curb stop and cracked it. I'm going to get it repaired, but I've been thinking that there should be some kind of product that I could affix on the lower lip to at least reduce paint cracking from slight scrapes. Does anyone have any suggestions for a material or product I could have the body shop affix? My thinking would be some kind of rolled steel, almost like electrical conduit, that would be open and fit around it. I think that might really look stupid, like a Z SUV brush guard, but work ok. Asthetically, something else might be nicer, such as a thick black plastic tubing that could be cut to look ok, if not OEM.

If anyone has any suggestions, please help me out.

Thanks

John

Its called chip gaurd , The painter at my shop uses it on the bottom of lots of the bumpers he paints.

 

It comes in a spray bomb u can probly get it at any body shop supplier , it sprays on clear and prevents chipping and scraping and u can always respray it.
