The damage is done when the driver then reverses back and , yep you guessed it , the air dam catches on the stop and is ripped off.
Not sure what the solution is apart from careful design and flexible materials.

For low curbs my solution doesn't suffer from that problem :
But for a very high curb I am not sure what will happen. I will test a "standard issue" concrete parking block next time I get the chance.
