front end scraping at the bottom of driveway
Is there a way to prevent the scraping of the bottom of the front end of a 2001 carrera when at the bottom of my driveway?
My driveway is a a declining ramp and underneath the front end scrapes the bottom of the driveway at the very end.
Is there something that might be able to life the car?

I had to install a "Ramp" to lift the front end, as the garage floor slab is higher than the driveway itself and it enter on a downward slop. I used a wood plank. Painted it close to the color of the concrete, attached it with bolts through the wood and the concrete. You could back in, this will usually change the angle of approach enough to pervent the scraping.
Good luck.

I'd like to offer a suggestion from the days of old when I was actively offroading: try approaching at an angle. If you get a good enough angle, then you should have one tire on the road and one on the driveway as you make the transition from driveway to street. It won't always work, but it's worth a shot.
