Question:

my only other question would be would the paint what kind cover the label sign on the wheel crib Also would the design of the race ramps on top where the wheel sets look different from the one that is made for the bottom and the one that goes on the top if you stacked it The reason i ask is that if i use for a display for my car at a car show would all 4 pieces look the same Thanks

Helpful Expert Reply:

The Race Ramps Adjustable Height Wheel Cribs part # RR-WC-12-2 that you referenced could be painted to your liking but the heat from the powder coating process would ruin them so I cannot recommend this. If you were to split each wheel crib and put one of the cribs under each of your wheels then the vehicle would look the same from each side in regards to distance from the ground.

I image that any standard automotive enamel paint would be sufficient for the Race Ramps Adjustable Height Wheel Cribs part # RR-WC-12-2. I don't know what type of paint was used on the "Race Ramps" logo but you could easily cover this up or let it show through with the new paint. The top part of the upper wheel crib will be just slightly different than the top part of the bottom wheel crib but this is not really going to be noticable. If you wanted the exact same design on the top of each crib you would need to go to a modular design like the Race Ramps Wheel Cribs part # RR-WC-8 which have an 8" lift.
