You could spend major $$ on ramps or you can do what I did, the cost is minumal. You only need to raise your car 3" so I took 2 2X6 30" long then cut 2 2X6 18" long and glued/screwed the two togeather stacking them. The lips are angle cut for ease of entry. I cut up some old hose and stapled a few strips to the bottoms so they wouldn't slide when you rolled up on them. I've seen rollups sell from $75= + in catalogs the ones I made aren't pretty but my rollups cost was about $3= and an hours time. They work and I never leave home without them....Gary

If he scrapes on flat ground, I'd assume he would know by now how to get on a ramp.
Let's hope these guys don't have to make a decision in which their lives depend on. Because they'd all make it to the Darwin awards.
Anyway. YOLO.

A clean drop done right can look good and handle well BUT, too many people choosing fashion over function slamming it too low. The same people you see 'bouncing' down the road. It seems like common sense to consider weather or not the car is your daily driver or strictly race when lowering. Its funny, most of these 'slammed' idiots have never even seen the track, only mall parking lots.
