Will it work with Mild to Wild already installed? It looks like it would be hard to fit the fuses for both.

Will it mount behind the C6 Z06 grill or down by the C6 radiator supports?

I like the curb alert system. I don't always have the option of backing into a parking spot. Thanks for reminding us of this useful device. I will get one ordered.

Tried calling in a Curb Alert order today for my C6 Z06. No one answered the phone at your place. Could I still order one at the sale price? Your installation video is excellent. Very nice product and thanks for developing it. Should I call tomorrow?

Got the Curb Alert ordered and installed. Very nice addition to the Z06 and helps to stay away from curbs and even low dips in parking lots. Thanks.

Introducing the "Cure for the Common Curb". Front end damage when parking is a very real problem for many cars on the road today, especially for vehicles who have installed ground effects or aerodynamic profile improvements on their vehicles. Curbs are something that are one of those road hazards that do more damage to sports cars than any other hazard on the road.



In fact, just a simple trip to the corner store can become a costly errand if you over-estimate your front end clearance when parking: damage repairs could easily run $1000 or more; however,
Curb Alert provides you a warning system that gives you three-deep warning tones as you approach too close to a curb.



The
Curb Alert is very easy to install and does not put a drain on your battery when the car is not on. Using a patented infrared technology, the front mounted sensor is calibrated to a warning distance of anywhere from 8-28" (you decide with whatever you feel comfortable with). The warning alarm is hidden in the car and will give you three gentle tones when you are within a specified distance to the curb. The system gives you a short beep every time you start your car to let you know the system is active.



The Curb Alert is one of a kind and is a gadget that will save you money in the long run, preventing front end damage to any car that is low enough to be vulnerable to a Curb. Do not take a chance, get the Curb Alert to prevent curb damage.


This is not one of those gimmicky products, we have installed it on a Corvette C6 Z06, Nissan GTR, and a Dodge Challenger. In all instances it works exactly as described (we wanted to test it ourselves before we opened the flood gates
) It is the real deal and will save you money in the long run. Heck it might it even give you enough confidence to let your significant other take the car for spin (my biggest worry letting someone else drive my car is there lack of familiarity with judging the curb distance when parking)

Installation Instructions (we are the only ones offering Custom Install packages and videos to install on the C5, C6 and Camaro) and videos are at the link below



We have the
Curb Alert in stock for 149.99 with free shipping.... at the link below...Also have a great video that shows how the system works and another video on how to calibrate it once installed.

Thanks,


Jim

I have been stewing over this one as well. I wish the sensor was a bit smaller.

I know that I need one of these as I am always terrified of scraping the front. (I have poor depth perception, unfortunately).
