Will a front or rear bumper that is low to the ground get damaged when I drive it through snow?

Question

They are about 6-10 inches from the ground and I live in Nebraska, and don't want to damage them while driving in the snow.

Answer 1

depends how deep the snow is, and if its hardened up or not

Answer 2

If by bumper you mean Body kit, then yes they will get damaged, if its a stock bumper those usually are pretty good quality and worst thing that can happen is paint chip if anything, but that's rare. The cheap body kits will bend and break. Trust me I live in chicago and first snow last year, drive my car, front bumper (body kit) breaks down, $700 down the drain. If its the stock ones im positive nothing will happen

Answer 3

They shouldn't as long as the snow isn't packed. If you have 10 inches of snow on the roads, you probably shouldn't be out driving that car anyway though (or at least be sure to bring a blanket and your cellphone).

Answer 4

No they will not. The only thing that's possible is the paint chipping.

Answer 5

The first time you drive on an unplowed road, your tires will settle down in the snow while your bumper starts acting like a bucket loader. Get the picture ?
