btw: driving up onto a couple of 2X4s works too (except for rear/non drive tire, the wood just gets pushed around)(rear is no problem for me), did it with my old accord

both of ours (only boss and me) are above ground, the underground proably has the advantage of no tie down plates/bolts above the surface so the arms can get closer to the ground
board rack??? you mean a drive on lift/rack like an alignment rack??? or what??? never heard of the term board rack.

I left the "A" on for now, just took off the ACURA and the 3.2TL off... I still need to buff mine too, so that you won't see where they were at.. But it doesn't look that bad for not doing anything other then just washing the car...

yeah you can still see the U outline (really only in direct sun and when it's clean) from the A C U R A on mine but it's not too bad and i have already tried bufffing it but i think it just needs some time to fade like the rest of the paint, and yours might not be as noticeable cause it's on a white car vs. black

Its an underground rack. It has 2 boards on the outside and you just one board on each side under the frame or pinch rails. Its mainly for cars and light SUVs and trucks with long frames. It sits really low and it can pick up my car with an 3 inches of clearance.

I'm still in.
