Gen6 RK Sport Lip Kit Clearance Issues?

For those that have the RK Sport lip kit installed (and preferably on a lowered car, mine's on TRD springs), do you have any clearance issues with the side skirts?

Specifically, I'm wondering about being able to go up on a shop's lift; like the one's they use at America's/Discount Tire. The lift is in the center between the front/rear wheels, but they extend laterally out past rocker sills.

My XLE's frame (currently with no lip kit) sits fine on these lifts, and the rocker sills do not interfere. Also, when jacking up the car at home, I have no problems getting the jack under my lowered car (well the frame is actually lower than the rocker sills, so yeah).

While we're at it, does the front/rear lips have issues going up ramps? Either for the lift described above, or the typical ramps many of us have at home?

Thanks!

Thanks guys for the fast responses!

Yeah, not worried about creeping for driveways/speedbumps/dips. I've driven slammed cars.

Paul, how'd your final go? So, does your RK skirts (not the SE skirts) go lower than your frame?

Haha, guess I should've just phrased my initial question that way.

Cool, thanks guys. Paul got back to me and said that the frame's still lower. Now gotta go shopping for the best place to buy/paint the kit in SoCal.
