I almost bought this product. I tried to angle the car on and off the driveway and had no problems.

:withstupid:

abso-frickin-lutely - looks like crap

What's it called at Home Depot or in what dept?

Leave it out and it will get stolen:crazy:

i put 6 sheets of 1/4"x4'x36" plate steel with a 2x6 footer under the edge that sits on the street.
it spans my driveway and makes the transition from street to sidewalk almost flat.
i angled the front edge of the 2x6 with a 45 degree bevel. so the only height i have to overcome is about a 2x4 in height. the rest is a smooth transition all the way to the sidewalk. the water runs under it unaffected.
the sheets weigh 80 lbs each. i painted them with autobody undercoating to prevent rust. and they work great!

Photos please ... :toetap:

:lurk:

The major issue with these is they are an ugly, dumb-azz cheap solution, they use "Recycled rubber tires" so their cost is nearly zero ... instead of using a gray or cement-colored rubber or plastic that matched the color of EVERY curb out there.

I wrote the Brigit peeps and asked why they weren't concrete-colored, their response was they "only offer black."

Also, if you have a concrete-curb you cannot legally alter it, as it is either city, county or state property (unless you built it), and is not usually on your property, always on a gov't easement or right-of-way. Maybe someone will offer a light gray one one day ... :willy:

[QUOTE=Thrash;1581533641] Read my post#40. When I built my house in 1975, the township let me remove mine. I would definitely check with the locals and see if anyone can remove it in their area. In some places- you can.......:thumbs:

sorry to bring back old thread but I need to know where these are. I move into a new house at the end of the month with a huge dip. I don't want to pay $300+ for some rubber.

Shave the curbs down
 

Hi

In my area we just shave the curbs down! It is like filing your nails

Good luck

I had 2 layers of interlocking mats and a single layer between (like a "H") and my GS made it in without scraping. Without them it's so close backing in all it takes is slightly lifting up the splitter and it does not touch. With the bolts in the stock position I wonder if I turn the rear bolts a turn or two would it raise the splitter a half inch or so? BTW, went to the store Sunday, gone 45 minutes and when I got back, my mats were gone!!!

Sorry to hear that. Sure stinks when stuff like that happens.

can you exit or enter your drive on an angle?

Sorry to hear that.

I recently got Brijit curb ramps myself and feel uncomfortable leaving something that cost $350 up for grabs.

They are too heavy to move every time I drive in and out. But if I don't use them the front nose of my GS scrapes the sidewalk (not worried about the air dam, which scrapes slightly even with the curb mats).

What is really needed is some sort of "hydraulic" lift shocks on front suspension, similar to what is used on "low riders" that would just give you enough clearance for curbs & speed bumps, just hit the switch when going in & out of drive way, then lower to standard height when driving. being able to raise front end just 2" would make the difference needed.**:yesnod::cool::yesnod:**

I used a hammer drill and some concrete anchors to hold mine down. They have been there for a year and no problems.

;) I wish I had these "having a driveway problem" i gotta park in the garage in the back of the house...I gotta drive thru a ugly city alley....boo woo!

I have an 8 foot 2"X12" pressure treated plank that fills in the gutter area nicely. I can pull in and out without scraping. I painted it gray so it matches the street. Works great and water flows underneath it. Still, the HOA is starting to complain about it.

The alleys with the good ol' speed bumps thanks to Richie Daley :willy:
