If you're worried about scrapping that much, I woundn't paint the front lip for now. Although I highly doubt you'll scrape it unless you have to jump a curve to get into your driveway. My car is lower than when you saw it at the meet (about 2.5" from the lip to the ground) and I still never scrape the lip. Cross member/flex pipe/muffler? oh yeah. But not the front lip.
