Selling my 56" low profile race ramps. These are the two-piece ramps for easy storage and will raise your car up by 8". It'll work with lowered cars without scraping. Good for working on the exhaust area under your lowered car.

can you post a little more info for those that have never used these (like me)?

Are they good for doing say a downpipe install/intercooler install?

are these safe? Yes, i am a huge pussy that fears their car falling on them while being under it.

Sorry, realized I posted the wrong one online so I just updated the price ($200 now).

For the downpipe install, you'd need two sets of them (i.e. four ramps) since the downpipes are in the middle of the car. Intercooler install will probably work since even though it's an 8" lift on your front wheels, it's at a 10 degree incline so you'll get more clearance where the intercooler is. Same thing for the exhaust pipe. They're nice and wide (12" wide) so I was able to back into them myself in my condo parking spot without anyone to spot me too.

As for being safe, you can place a jack stand on the front differential if installing say your intercooler and you should also be putting chock blocks behind each of the four wheels to prevent the car from rolling back. They're able to support 3000 lbs which is more than enough for our E9X's.

Downpipes run right behind the right front wheel, you would be better off with the car on jack stands and the wheel removed so you can get around better. But the Lo Pro ramps will make it easier to get jack the car and get it on stands.

Actually now that you mentioned it, I forgot to mention that because this is the two-piece version, you can actually remove the first part of the ramp so you can enter under the car from the side. So you might have enough room to do downpipes but I'm not entirely sure since I've never tried it.
