I do, still driving it daily, got new all seasons and hubcaps for it now BUTTTTTT, it's gettin parked indoor once the temp starts dropping below 0.. So in like a week or two, the h22 gets stored away.

I got a 92 Teg GS, waiting for me , not as quick but has winters on it with ABS

Everything's still the same for me until Nov 15 when I wash the car, wax the car, and then change the summer tires to my winters.

how bad is it to drive a lowered car in the winter, also is it wise to remove my lip and grille?

It's bad!! You know how usually snow builds up in the middle of a roadway in between the tracks of cars?? Well your car will be plowing that.. trust me it sounds HORRIBLE!!! your gonna hate yourself for it.. My old teg was like 1.25 dropped and still did it occasionally.

Consider your grill and front lip garbage if u plan on driving daily in winter.. Getting into parking lots where they havent plowed properly is horrible.. inclines with snow.. it will ripp of or get damage.. it's not all snow either remember, those plows PLOW everything, including asphalt!!..

My advice is to remove the lip and grille cause it will be scratched like Hell if you drive through snow. Trust me I had mine painted twice because I was too lazy to take the lip off.

Then again, have I learned anything from it? NO, I still have my lip on now and I am not planning to take it off either. Stupid I know, but bold.
