I ended up picking mine up from H-Fit:

H-Fit.com ...Products for your GD3 / GD4 / GE8 Honda Fit...

I had the ramps from Checker but after installing the skunk2 c/os those were history. Prior to getting the low-profile ramps from h-fit I used a couple of boards like Hien said.

I ordered the ramps and the Cusco rear strut bar at the same time. The shipping was via USPS and came out to $30. It might be even less if you're ordering just the ramps.

Got my rubber chocks from Checker. I think they were pretty cheap (don't remember).

These ramps work great. Our Fit is parked on the ramps as we speak!

Hi Randay. Please check your email. The shipping costs for the Tomioka Racing slopes are higher for Hawaii. Please feel free to PM us your email address.

Hi Raton. The shipping for the Cusco strut bar and Tomioka Racing Slopes were higher than $30. We personally paid over $35 more to cover the shipping. We had to change our shipping policy at that point (on our F.A.Q page). We felt it wouldn't be fair to charge you the extra shipping fee as it was not stated at that time.

Thank you both!

I just bought the Rhino from Checker. I used a lead brick 3/4 inch thick about 8 inches long and it went right up. I going to get some ply wood to make a lead plank. When it's on the ramp you can change oil no problem.

I used to roll it on to two end caps( cement hollow tile ) then jack em.
