Youve answered your own question really. From the cars point of view there is no problems, its just lower. But if you tw*t into a speedhump then yes it may hit the floor.

Measure the height of the speedbump and then measure your ground clearence from the floor to your front bumper. If the speedbump measurement is more than the ground clearence measurement then you are gonna hit it!

Simple really?

Yeah, the only thing thats gonna damge your car is the fact that nows its lower there is more chance of you hitting the floor.

Take it easy and it will be fine!
