I just could not find any retail service ramps that fit the price/height/quality balance and also fit under the R53 aero bumper. So here's the fruits of my little quarantine activity this weekend, some DIY wood ramps! I attached some PDFs if anyone is interested in building their own and trusts their fab skills - I designed them to use an exact multiple of 2"x12"x8' planks so there's zero waste wood on the expensive stuff. I built the "4-plank" version and I'm swimming in room under the thing, I think most people could get away with the smaller one. Construction is simple screw'n'glue with a few cheap casters on the bottom for vertical storage. I think i'll put a fancy handle or something on it, 'cause these things are heavy.

 

looks great! What's the final height that the car is elevated off the ground?

 

​10.5" for the big one.

 

Thanks and apologies; I saw the dimensions in your pdf shortly after I asked the question. Thank you for sharing!

 

I used to use 1x8s on my super low VWs. Like rest a coin on the subframe low.
