Default Lifetime alignment with Porsche knowledgeable tech for $200 in SF Bay Area

The Pep Boys in Newark, CA has an alignment tech named John who is a perfectionist and will take the time to dial things in. He obviously works on a lot of other models, so it's helpful to refresh his memory if you print out the relevant alignment pages of the WSM. Also, bring special tool 9116 (or make one from a bolt), remove the belly pan (a must), fill up the gas tank and put weights on the driver's seat if you want the best possible alignment.

No affiliation, just a happy former customer (before I moved out of the area).

That's a great deal, considering one can take a 928 off the alignment rack, drive it around the block, and need to "kiss" the alignment.
Those 30-45 year old rubber pieces take a different "set" after every bump or turn.
