The bad road in the state is nothing to write home about. Not to talk of other bad road that load to my house. washing your car this rain season is a waste of time and effort.

The worst part is my bumper and exhaust.

Was considering lifting the car up it it will affect the balance.

I'm here to learn

You need it because manufacturers of these vehicles didn't put the deplorable state of our roads into consideration... If you stay in the city with good roads, what about traveling to your village??

Besides, it's safer to drive an SUV that has huge ground clearance. If you can't afford it ,you can lift your sedan,at least it will reduce the number of times you will visit a panel beater.

As You lift it, ensure you get bigger tyres

Lifting a car reduces the stability especially on high speed

I lifted mine, they merely need to add some rubbers to the shock absorber springs and I've been enjoying it since then.

As much as I hated doing it, I had no option due to the state of our roads. For me, I'm okay with the results so far.

Please don’t, I did it to my es330 and the steering pump show me shege, it affected the steering pump and I changed pump more than 5 times. Because of the added higher it kept stretching the pump pipe and damaging it.
My advice is to maneuver slowly and professionally when driving

Well maybe, but I’ll never try to do such reconfiguration again, I’ll leave as factory made it.

I drove carefully with my corolla with factory height, I was just scrapping every speed bump on the road, even covet to my house, I just vex buy bigger tire and lifted it slightly, since then no more scrapping
and no issues so far.

My fear for these small vehicles is low space between bumper and the ground. My dream cars has always been SUVs and Big Jeeps like Tundra

This! Many people fail to understand the physics

Some roads are so bad that lifting could suffice.

Yes

It'll surely be the best decision you'll ever make as regards your car durability on Nigerian roads.

Yes

If you like your car, better go lift am

Sorry I couldn't help I don't own a car for now
