no damage here, as long as you don't drop your car.

My car is lowered with KW coilovers and sits about at the same height as an OEM sport chassis.

Edit: The amount of clearance under the splitter at the lowest spot is 13cm / 5,12".
Anzafin, Not sure if you already have these measurements, or if you would mind taken them for me?
What's the measurement from the bottom of the splitter to the bottom of the M-Tech bumper?

Ok I measured it. Please note that the splitter is not attached to car now, so I measured the distance shown in the picture.

Nice! Thanks man, appreciate that. How is the fitment of your splitter? Any recommendations for a good vendor?

Mine is ordered from Schmiedmann Denmark, but I don't think that would be a good deal for you as you live across the pond.
My splitter is made by glassfiber and wrapped in carbon fiber. The underside of the splitter is hollow. The match is perfect .
It wasn't expensive either. If I remember it right it was approximately 270? shipped.
