Ty. She gets my hobby, and she definitely pays herself back. After our daughters born, I’m getting her a mustang so she can get bit by the mod bug. Lol

I know this question is wore out...but even with Rhino ramps and different variations of lumber...I still find my car wanting to hit the front splitter. Anyone come up with a magic combination?

TheFlyingBananaSS · 03-22-2021, 10:01 AM

Definitely sounds nice. Be patient though it's coming together.

It’s all in the angles. With my 1le splitter, and my ZL1 addons splitter, I do t scrape. I’m also lower with BMR 1.4

Tell me about it!! They had trouble getting traction in the street so I'll have to get hp tuners and make adjustments at the track. Another $400 to the bill lol. Picking it up tomorrow morning.

I use a short piece of a 2x4 about 24 inches long just at the beginning edge of the ramps,, gets it high enough to clear, but go slow...
