I think Paragon's pic shows that the ramp is actually taller than the front lip, but the ramp hits the wheels before the lip touches them, so when you drive up them, the bumper will lift before the point of touching.

This method works like a charm and is what i did to get my coupe up on my rhino ramps.

I had the same problem with the Rhino Ramps. Luckily my driveway has a bit of a slope to it, so I put the ramps "downhill" of the car. :-P

What really sucks, is I can't get my floor jack under the front of the car enough to reach a jacking point.
