you'd think your situation would be the kind of thing to deter you from lowering the car, lol

if you own the house, just throw down some concrete to smooth out the curb and be done with it forever.

I think I have the worst driveway ever.
As soon as the sidewalk ends my driveway starts sloping down (creating a peak at the end of the sidewalk). Then about 2ft away from the garage door it starts to slope back up (for water runoff i guess).

Lowering my car isnt an option. Good thing i absolutely love the suspension set up

The angling approach sure looks like it should work. I used to have an eclipse back in high school that was pretty dang low and would clear some pretty high speed bumps and stuff, although we did have 2 nasty ones at school that i drove over every day, so i got lots of practice, heh.

Just take the angle nice and slow. That way your suspension doesn't flex as much, seems like that's where most scraping comes from.
