There's nothing illegal with it just some people who don't drive lowered cars tend to not slow down or avoid speed bumps/pot holes .etc something which wud cause a lot of damage to my car.

I seemed to remember Katie's brother's corsa having his bonnet fly up when they drove it on an MOT test so was curious of my rights if they did damage my car or took it out for no need.
