Scraping the bottom

My Camaro is lowered so it's easy to scrape on most anything higher than level entry. I was wondering what are the implications of scraping on the undercarriage? I rarely do it (careful driving) but it has happened. What issues could arise, or is it mostly cosmetic? Thanks!

You really have to ask that question?

have you looked around underneath? I would think if it was the headers you would be able to see the flange bent or something. I plan on dropping mine but I'd be lying if I said this wasn't a concern.

mine used to scrape alot. it was the high flow cats that were bottoming out. lesson learned don't throw low profile tires on it.
