    so now your low but need a tow?

    Just curious how you all get your cars towed (if need be) once it's dropped?

      Do you need ramps so you don't scrape your front end?

        Yep. If you're really low, you scrape everywhere so it's not really a big deal. A few 2x4's should help enough that it only scrapes the bottom of your lip and doesn't crack your oil pan.
        The first car I ever rode in was an e30

          Most tow-truck drivers bring along some 2x8's or similar lessen the incline. Just tell them the car is low when you call.

          I loved my MK5, when I got a tow I just pulled the bumper.

                Coilovers and 16s. Not hard at all.

                When I needed a tow, I called AAA and told them I needed a flatbed. They showed up, I took my lip off and the tow truck driver did the rest. He used 2x4s and finesse. And for the record, my car is lower than the one pictured above. Any good tow driver should have no trouble getting a low car up on the truck.

                  Yeah ALWAYS remove your lip....always.

                  Hardest part can be exhaust if you don't haev it mounted up tight and snug.
