Stupid mistake
Well I learned the hard way today want happens when you put jack stands on the jack points of the car and use a scissor jack. Rich Sandor ius right use the front subframe and rear trailing arms to put the jack stands on. I ended up putting a hole through the bottom of the floorpan. I am going to use black silicone to close the whole up, but do you guys tink that I should get it fixed because I am worried that over time it will open up for fromthe flexing of the car. Here is a pic.

WTF... Then why did Porsche give us a designated jacking point if you can't jack from there? I just used the trailing arm and control arm by habit, since that's what I used before I found out about the jacking points, and they work well. I'm glad I never tried it though!
