You can do the multiple layers of trash bag trick if you want more accuracy.
I'd have to raise both sides of the car evenly for that to work, otherwise the swaybar and roll-steer will skew the result.

Besides, I'm already not looking forward to the simple process of taking all the wheels off and raising the car, nevermind going all home-alignment on the thing. I'd rather KSpeed do the work while I pester Bob and Cory and eat Tacos.
