Driveway Ramps

Who else has had to do this? Makes life much easier. I just wish I'd have done it sooner. Before my Hi-Flow Cats got flattened by the end of my Driveway.

I just take my driveway at a hard angle. This does seem like a neat idea though.

No issues with Camaros, but my Z06 with the full aero kit is a problem. I had my driveway flattened on the bottom, but my bigger issue is the overall angle of the climb up my driveway. I dropped my Z on the factory bolts (7/8 upfront, 1" rear) but after my wife screamed at me to stop while I was backing out of the driveway for a test run because I was going to leave my CF splitter behind, I quickly lifted the car back up. Full 45 degrees on the way out, and I spray paint red guidelines at the bottom of the driveway for pulling in. I simply line up the lines in my front cameras and pull right in. Sucks, but it works.

Same here. I put the Ivan Tampi diffuser on the rear and it hangs a good deal lower than stock. Even the neighbors commented about how slow I go in and out of my driveway. But the camaro has no issues at stock ride height.

They are Vevor's. Sell on amazon for about $75 for a 4 ft section.
Stock ride height I didnt have any problems either. It wasn't till adding Kooks Long Tubes with Hi-Flow Cats and lowering it that I had problems.

Thought about doing cement work on the curb itself, but our community is big into the HOA thing, and an "Easier" solution seemed like less of a fight. My neighbors already hate how loud the car is, don't need to make anyone angry by "Modifying" the cement.
