i've had this problem, i ripped my whole ex of from the engion to the end lol. i just live with the scraping, and i haven't even got mine lowered.

it would be good if you could put a thin metal sheet on the whole bottom and then nothing would get damaged

Ibizas do it too, unfortunately.

I was down 60mm but the speedhump outside work ripped the exhaust off every time. I've changed the springs to 40mm and its better now.

Everywhere I go there's a speedhump. I think I'll stick to standard kit on my next car.
