Curb Alert Front Bumper Protection System at PFYC
Curb Alert Front Bumper Protection System
Introducing the cure for the common curb, the Curb Alert. 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 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.
Features:
- Universal Mount (All Makes and Models)
- Warns with an audible alarm before striking a curb that could damage your front bumper and/or spoiler.
- Prevents embarrassing parking lot moments and sounds when your bumper or front spoiler hits a curb.
- Sensor can mount in a discrete manner in the front end of most any vehicle and does not require any drilling.
- Advanced infra-red triangulation technology and specialized software embedded for reliable operation.
- Warning distance is adjustable from 8-28 inches. (Bumper to curb)
- Removable when necessary with out leaving any holes as evidence.
- Automatic power-up on vehicle ignition; never a battery drain.
- Alert sound volume can be set to High, Low, or Mute inside vehicle.
- Installation kit includes installation procedures, all wiring, wire ties, sensor calibration procedures, and user guide.
This is not one of those gimmicky products, we have installed it on a Corvette C6 Z06, Nissan GTR, BMW 335i, 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 their lack of familiarity with judging the curb distance when parking).

Ditto.
Has anyone with a Z06 actually installed this setup and if so, did you mount the sensor behind the air deflector (under the car) or in the grill? I'd LOVE to see some pictures and a REAL report from a Z06 user. So far, I haven't been able to get any info from anyone (including the manufacturer) other that a Stingray user which is (obviously) different.

Mounted mine dead center of the grille on my 2016 and after one test run and one adjustment it was perfect. After you get the height where you want it I suggest you put in a shim below the sensor for extra support. I cut one of the included extra brackets and it was just right to detect a 4 inch high threat at about 20 inches out which gives you time to turn on the forward cameras to finish the landing. So far I love it and no matter what they say there will be a time when you pull in not thinking how close you actually are and it's too late. I drive a Duramax truck as a DD and I can judge it a hell of a lot closer than the long front end on the Z06 .

I mounted mine UNDER the chin, though it's not 100% reliable. I wish it was, and it's 100% when it comes to spotting a cardboard box during calibration, just not so much in the field. I don't know if that's the device or user error, but it -usually- sees the curb.

I was worried about my driveway Dave since I lowered it on stock bolts and with just me in the car it's fine but iffy with a rider and there was no way it was gonna stay under the chin. This seems to work fine.

I had one on my CTS V. Worked well provided you keep it from moving. The suggestion of a shim makes good sense.

I have one of these installed in the front meshed into the grill of my Z and it works great. My sensor has not moved and install was easy.
The weakness is the side protection as my sensor is in the front of the nose. Does anybody know if you can hook up multiple sensors like 2 more for the left/right side and get a y splitter and hook it into the control unit?
Thx
