Default Very low ford Anglia .need some advice please

Hi basically I have lowered my daily drive ford Anglia 105e 1300 gt .it has blocks on the back and springs on the front .it looks great the kit was a 2" kit but it went very low I have 12" revolutions on it aswell which makes it lower ..

I am so happy with the look and ride but the sump is so low to the floor in fact I can't go over speed bumps .not a problem because I live In Malta and there is hardly any .but what I want help or pictures with is sump guarding my Anglia .and what sort of gaurd I can build I don't care what it looks like .

What have you done or seen before thanks

Could you not modify your sump so you get more clearance.

Here's mine which I made when I was about 17 lol hence the quality-but worked!
Tbh it got on my nerves being to low so I put coilovers on to rise it up
I had issues with the exhaust catching everywhere I went aswell
Also it might be worth to put twin front roll bars on (see pic)which you can just see them as this protects the sump slightly!http://Name:  e51c41789d46d8e2772222d4be8757a2_zps45bf46e0.jpg
