Default Save my front end help

I have a 93 Vette with the greenwood package and everytime I go down my driveway it has the little drop into the street and my front end scrapes a little. Does anyone know of a device that you can buy that would make it a gradual slope into the street ie a rubber piece that matches the height of the curb on 1 side and angles down to street level on the other side. I'm sorry but I have no idea what this would be called and searches here and on the internet have gotten me no where
Thanks
Frank

You could make something out of wood.

I had a similar problem. What did I do? Move!

But until then I turned sharply and went really, really slow. Worked most of the time. If I forgot I got a reminder...

Enter/exit the drive way at an angle. If back in, I scrape. Going in forward and backing out - no problem
