Ground Effects Question I have been thinking about getting the Rk Sport or Wings West Ground Effects. But I have been wondering how camaros with Gfx or bodykits get there oil changed. The way I do it is I take the car to a fast lube and they drive it on a lift and change the oil. But with that front spoiler or lip it will rip right off as soon as the car drives up the lift. Also if I plan on putting suspension mods I would have to put it on a lift to get under the car right. That would be another issue. Its not a daily driver so I am not worried about dips or speed bumps. Any suggestions would really help.

Re: Ground Effects Question Just use some 2x6's and drive the front tires on them. Thats what i do with lowered car and ground effects. Lift it on the passenger side frame that way all the oil comes out.

Re: Ground Effects Question I have the WW kit on my TA. If your car is not lowered the extra front trim piece wont be a problem. The only thing that scrapes on mine is the plastic air dam under the car.
