The slant style has become the defacto option for its versatility in stamping and texturing although a vast number of consumers prefer to keep a sleek uniform gray extrusion which matches so much of contemporary styling. When colored, textured and/or stamped, the slanted look shows off any of those features with more pronouncement.

The curb style is generally set at ground level for lawn mowing. It is very popular in commercial lawn settings because it handles larger mower wheels and has a more massive look. It can be installed as regular gray concrete or it can be stamped and textured. Because it is set at ground level it is not as easily seen from the street and therefore leaves a groomed look without seeing as much concrete edging.
