when pulling out of your drive way or driving up, roll at an angle...unless your car is crazy low you should be able to do it

of if you super rich...build a garage on the street

Always go on an angle out of steep places like your driveway.

i don't have a problem getting down...but its right before the garage area that i scrape, can't go on an angle because theres a pole in the middle of my 2 garages, support beam for the patio...u think putting a few 2x4's will work???


as for the garage on the street...not that rich yet :lol:

just wedge it... or get a long piece of plywood

U can probably do it with 2 flat pieces of wood with some support under the middle of them both (where the driveway and garage meets) and use them as ramps to drive in and out of your garage.

Buy some coilovers and put the car back closer to stock ride height.

Would backing into the garage make a difference?

Go in at an angle - one wheel at a time climbing over the curb. Do this when you leave your driveway as well.

Are you rolling on stock springs or is it just the Greddy lip that dips too low?

Learn to book your appointments right you All-West freak. ;)

Back on topic...Danny..have you figured out a way around it yet?

thanks for all the response guys, but i guess my only option is using a ramp

my car isn't that low, i think its dropped maybe an inch and a half max, the fenders are aligned with the top of the tire.

can't exactly go on angle because of the support beam which i mentioned earlier

its just the Greddy lip thats scraping...the rest is fine

so gonna try out the ramp tomorrow morning...hopefully it'll work!
hate leaving her outside

:mad:
