Default oil change

Any thoughts on getting the car, 2001 Z06, on ramps for an oil change without damaging the air dam. Thanks

Something akin to THESE might be what you're talking about. I use the regular ones without a problem, but I haven't lowered my car.

I use the Rhino ( dark gray) ramps.

Since my 02Z is lowered on stock bolts,I drive up on 2x4 wood first to raise the car just a tad,then drive on the ramps.

Works for me.

I use Rhino Ramps too and as long as the car isnt lowered, you wont have any issues. Itll rub the airdam a little on the way up, but wont pull them off.

Race Ramps XT-2 and 56-2 ramps were originally designed for use by a Z06.
