Default ? raising 05 Vette, and front spoiler removal

I know most people are always looking for ways to LOWER their car. I on the other hand want to raise at least the front of my 05 C6 Vette at least one inch. Can anyone tell me if its okay to do this, and if using the rubber or metal coil spring spacers are reliable and safe to use on this car. Also where to buy them. I simply want less of a chance to scrape the front end. ALSO, can I remove the front plastic spoiler that scrapes constantly under the car without any overheating issues?. Thanks, ggolds5.

Is the C6 a "bottom breather" for cooling? If so, then spoiler removal will adversely affect cooling.

Not sure about raising but you might check some Corvette suppliers such as Mid-America Corvette, Zip, Vette Brakes, etc. Some have a tech line that might have some ideas.
