I used to have that problem with my old car. Every shop I went to I had to tell them I had neons and when they put it on the lift, they moved the things more underneath the car. Make sure you tell them and watch them do it because I took my car to a body shop and told them and then got my car back with broken neons and made them buy new ones.

I installed my neons with exactly this situation in mind. My side tubes are centered in the frame so neither is adjacent to the side jack points.

I used to have neons until I got tires installed at Sam's club and one side tube broke. Then a few days later the other side broke, and I just ripped everything out. I don't know how it happened, because the tubes are literally inside and above the sideskirts. Lesson learned that neons are too breakable to be underneath a car. Maybe it's the crappy roads we have here.
