Curb Ramps

Got mine in today. They were a fortune as far as recycled rubber ramps go, but Should definitely save me from a few scrapes and wearing down the suspension with the stupid new dip curves neighborhoods have nowadays. They come in 4 foot sections and a half-pipe on the bottom side to allow water to drain through like it is supposed to with these curbs.

Got mine from Shercom Industries. They don't have a Seattle area dealer btw, so get ready for hefty freight charges.

PS: that's not how they look now, there is no gap in between; that was for picture purposes only.

we'll see.. car is in the shop until the end of the week; that's my supercharged nissan sentra rental, with nos option. haha. I've mastered my driveway by now, but it's still tough on the suspension having to go up the curb all the time.

- well the shipping is what kills you = $160
- the ramps are $50 each but he sold them to me for $40 each, because shipping sucked.
- Total: $320 shipped

I'm sure some will say that's a rip off and not worth it, but it is so me, because I don't have to spend money replacing parts I shouldn't be and/or scraping.

Man they are like 40 lbs each. No Joke. Freight was $160.

You know when you are hardcore when you have freight PALLETS sitting in your garage.
