Default On Sale! New MINI Curb Alert Systems $159.99 & FREE SHIPPING!!

We are excited about our newest high-tech offering here at Corvette Mods!

CUSTOMIZED FOR A CORVETTE! We include a specially designed wire harness so you can tap into your fuse box, eliminating the manual wiring process. This cuts the install time down greatly!

The Curb-Alert Mini system is an easy to install system that provides audible warning sounds as you approach a parking curb or obstruction. This works in the same way that the back up sensors as OEM equipment in new cars function.

The sensor mounts underneath your front bumper, out of sight and nobody will know its there! If you've already been a victim of parking curbs you probably already know the damage that it causes. This kit will make sure that doesn't happen again!

Normal retail is $229.95

For a limited time we are offering this kit for $149.99 SHIPPED!!

Can this be installed and will it work reliably with a front bra on the car?

How is it wired? you said it is wired into the fuse box? well how do I wire the speaker etc for it? gotta go through the firewall to put the speaker inside eh?

and wouldn't this lower the car's lowest point since it's going to be sitting under the bumper? even though I won't hit a curb anyone, sometimes my front bumper might touch or just barely clear an angled/steep inclination on a road. i'd hate to crush it!

We make it easy with a simple fuse tap.

On the fence about picking one of these up to protect my front lip from me being an idiot. Will it work properly with a front lip installed?

Default WHERE to Mount - Hidden?

OK - I've been there and am now thinking that it time to add this 'mod'! Anyone try mounting this BEHIND the front license plate cover on a C5? The cover is plastic. If the sensor signal is strong enough will go through the plastic....that may be a nice place to keep it out-of-the way! Better than mounting below the front fascia.

What do you think - anyone try?

I don't think the sensor will work behind plastic. However, there are a lot of clever places you can hide it out of plain view
