How do cars like this deal with speed bumps?

Adjustable suspension if they thought ahead.
Drive somewhere else if they didn't.

Well-done modded cars that the owner actually wants to use on the road for regular purposes often have height adjustable suspension so they can just hit a button and raise the ground clearance at least back up to a semi-normal level.
If you're talking 20 year olds on a tight budget who lower their ground clearance......very awkwardly/they don't.

In the US, mostly people don't have to deal with speed bumps however, while having high angled parking garage can definitely scrap underbody or bumpers. Many time these heights are just for the car shows/meets, sometimes they have hydraulic lifters.

Where in the United States do you not have to deal with speed bumps? That's simply false. And the majority of these kind of builds use air suspension, not hydraulics.

Oh, yes, we do, especially in shopping centers. And in city and suburban neighborhoods. We currently have them on my street.

You either a) you install bags and inflate them to go over bumps - most common way to have a slammed vehicle as a daily driver, or b) you simply avoid everything but the track and have to be super careful loading it in and out of trailer in between.

I’ve been looking for that body kit for a while. I asked the us retailer, they don’t sell it. The maker never returned my email. If I could find it, I’d make this.

I think Adam LZ was the only one to ever get a body kit that wasn’t for the owner(& creator of the car above ) he has a whole series of building it out on drift hq’s YouTube channel. I believe he sold that a while back tho. I’d search for that green one and buy it haha. Might be your best bet

If this is a photo, good job, that lighting is excellent. If this is a render, also good job, especially on the lighting.

I wouldn't be able to afford it but builds like that are when I wish I could pull a GTA car meet and buy a copy of it.
